The SFBMA was emailed by a Community friend.

Here is what he wrote, “I just got word that one of my good friends and old coworkers recently had a stroke and can hardly move his legs or talk. He used to messenger with TCB in SF then later used to ride with The Cut Cat’s here in Chicago.  

There a way to get this GFM posted to the San Fran BMA account so people can either donate or share the post?

So, I have posted this for Miguel. Wishing the Best for Ian and his friends and family!
