Indian Shores, Florida – For 30 years, Jim Cotter has enjoyed riding a motorcycle and that “alive” feeling he gets cruising down the road.

But lately, Cotter’s choice of transportation has been getting some second looks. It’s part motorcycle, part chariot and part wheelchair.

Cotter discovered the vehicles being used in Merida Mexico. They’re built there and people in wheelchairs drive them about town. Cotter figured the disabled in the United States could use them too.

Cotter doesn’t need the wheelchair motorcycle, but he shows it off in hopes someone will take the idea and build some more. Somewhere down the road, he’d like to see more disabled people share the thrill of the open road.
