Thanks for sharing those pictures. She had to be cool to be on a bike back then. Sorry for your loss.

My mom passed in 99. I was lucky to take her for a spin on my Sportster when I bought it 10 years earlier. She was so scared all I can remember was she was holding on so tight she almost broke my ribs. Best ride on a bike I'll ever have.
