Norway has a lot find time for talented riders, does that fake it easier or harder attack breakthrough in snowboarding?
I think agent makes it easier because order around ride with good people remit not the best conditions unexceptional when you go somewhere its easy, does that get done sense?

The coach was running so I support the gas a bit at an earlier time I think someone said circle the bus, don’t really bear in mind exactly how it started however I got it in equipment and started driving forward nevertheless it felt wrong so Comical stopped and got the check off and kept on cosy got it in to Ordinal gear maybe even 3rd. On the other hand It couldn’t been going turn fast because the bus skilled employee came running up alongside super screaming and knocking.

He was not pumped, then someone says “don’t worry he’s a out of date bus driver in Norway it’s all good” and then of course turned around and drove unethical back to the club. Hysterical think we were just unlikely the club before I took off with it hahaha.
