@18huidos do it up, get the isci handbrake on a SE-5 and ride. spyderlovers owners website has a bunch of info and used spyders from all over, best spyder site out there.

Motorcycle accident here from 1999 same level as you. I need to be riding. I seen this, man am i ready to go.

@aanglero do it, got to spyderlovers//com and get a used spyder se-5 put a isci handbrake and floorboards, a wheelchair bracket and with about 16k total invested you can have one hell of a daily handicrapped driver.

Damn, Im impressed. Thats some sick shit, and really is amazing that it lets you get a second chance at "freedom." Youre ballsy bro, keep it up.

[trailerrailer]

@ashergtrrn thanks bud. Anyone can do it, just adapt it.

@ashtonellis you are still crippled if you get in a car, I guess I could sit around all day, smoke cigs and collect unempoylment too. Do your parents still have a spare room?

My Fiance has Cerbral Palsy. We are getting a spyder this week. So happy he found a way to ride. Spyder needs to know how many disabled riders they have helped.

i know it may not be pertinant to the video but how common are spinal cord injuries like yours in motorcycling as compared to extreme sports like motocross, skiing, bmx, etc?

[AshishJeep]

from a fellow rider to another...YOU ARE A F***ING BEAST! Keep riding man
