Default Took sis on first bike ride...

Wife and I enroute to Sturgis from Va... stopped at my brother's for a visit in Ohio. Took his wife for a short ride (first time!) and couple pics from sturgis area. Put video together for her to have. She is a cancer survivor and just finished her chemo treatments, but seems to be doing great! Wanted a ride, so I had to of course. Shoulda heard my bro... "better not kill my wife!" as we rode off... just thought I would share here...

Awesome video! It's really neat to give someone their first ride on a scoot. That's something she'll always remember you for!

That's one more thing to remove from her "to do list". Very nice of you to help out.

Great video. It's a good feeling to give someone a ride who really appreciates life and knows what hell (chemo) must be like. I took my 82 year old and 8 month cancer free father in-law for his first ever ride couple of months back. Good job!

thanks all... she is defintely a special and strong lady... Should have heard the neighborhood women going nuts over her getting a ride on the bike. They wanted their turn also, but the wife would have no part of that... and I knew better regardless
