Bikers with disabilities adapt motorcycles to stay on the road

Dave Willett of Ormond Beach lost his leg after a motorcycle accident in 1998, but continues to ride with some adaptations to his motorcycle.
Robin Donnelly, whose spina bifida keeps her from walking, loves the freedom her adapted motorcycle gives her, so in 2004 she launched the Disabled Riders of America. The organization networked many bikers who once thought they were alone in retrofitting their motorcycles to meet their needs. Orlando Sentinel (Fla.)
