My wife works in a skilled rehab facility in south eastern wisconsin, and has a former wing rider who is now on hospice. He is early 60s, approximately 20 year...s ago, struck a deer with his goldwing, suffering life changing injuries. He has been in a wheelchair since. One of his last wishes is to ride on a goldwing trike before he dies. The staff and hospice will help secure him on the trike and will group ride to help out. If anyone would be able/ willing to help make this guy's last wish come true, please personal message me. This gentleman may only have a a short time left.
 
one more ride on GW

I am hear to tell you if I was not so far away I would be glade to give the man all the ride he wanted. 3 years ago my brother in-law was in the same shape and told me he would like to ride on my goldwing tirke. it was only 5 hrs south of me and the wife and I made the trip he was in a wheelchair also and a big man 6' 4" it was not hard to get him on the wing and off we went with most of the staff looking. it was hot in south Texas upper 90s. he had never been on a motorcycle and one of the first things he said was ( you can see ever thing on here ) we road for may be an hr. and I was afraid the heat would get to him and came back. he died 3 weeks later. I would not take nothing for that ride with him. he was 83.
