Fantastic, my dad took his first ride last year at 97! 25 miles. Maybe they should hook up.

Wish I could have done that. My Grandmama passed on back in the 70's. I think she would love a ride in the country on the back of my scoot. Sure do miss her.

Good for U and her..

I have two older neighbor lady's who what a ride also. Might be OK for one but the other is soo frail and weak I am almost afraid to let her on.

my 85 year old mum wants a ride really bad, but she's got a very bad back. I'd hate to be responsible for hitting a hard bump and putting her in traction...

That is awesome. Reminds me of when my grandma drove the 4 wheeler for the first time at 85 years old. Just goes to prove that age in and of itself is not a deterant. Hope she goes on many more rides.

My mother, grandmother and great grandmother all rode either pillion or sidecar on their husbands bikes, I grew up with the stories of their motorcycling adventures, I had no chance of not being a biker.

Awesome! Tell her the boys from Boston said "she's a keeper"! Wish your family many more rides to come.
