  1. That was a nice gesture SAM TRANS to invite us for a free ride on June 16 and to give us a gift and free snacks after our ride. I personally appreciate your generosity and would like to thank you in advance. Now where will I catch the Sam trans as I live in Los Prados St. , San Mateo and our cross St is Hillsdale Blvd. Can I catch my ride from along Hillsdale Blvd where it stops? Please advise & give me your instructions. My cp iPhone # (650)483-7359 or email address: catherinemostajo@comcast.net. I prefer you text me in my iPhone as it will come in handy for me. How about that Sir?

  2. Thank you for sharing the free ride day…. I’m going to take out my daughter and enjoy our mommy / daughter bonding riding your bus.
