Sidecar Time
by Robert Jorgenson
10.19.06
Just had my 52nd year as a HD rider. Won the Daytona Beach bike stunt driving championship in 1956. Injured my elbow in a race in 1956 and again last year and was told I could not ride my 2002 Ultra Classic.
Did I listen?? NO!!
Dropped the bike on main street and two men blocked traffic with their truck and got the bike up for me. My pride was hurt but no damage to the bike. I rode home and put a sidecar on it. The sidecar works great for people with one arm or one leg. (That's another story). A wife or friend can easily get a learners permit in several hours for a sidecar-equiped bike and you are off riding for another 10 years.
Now I put the sidecar on at the first snow and leave it on until spring. Works great.
My dog loves the sidecar.
