My wife's mother enjoyed riding motorcycles with me. We rode with thousands of people on Memorial Day. Or just the three of us on the back roads of East Tennessee and North Carolina. We enjoyed running the back roads and needing to turn the GPS on to get home. Friday the 11th I got to take her on her last ride. From Greeneville TN. To Rogersville TN. Behind the spyder she enjoyed riding on. I will miss you Mom

So sorry for your loss. What a memorable last ride.

One of our local funeral homes has a Honda trike and a glass sided enclosed trailer they pull behind it for taking a casket to the cemetery. It was a very befitting send-off for a friend's funeral last year.

Thank you all. The funeral director said it was the most unusual and moving funerals she ever did. Three people rededicated their lives to the Lord, the ladies inmate choir singing, Mom Last Ride. The ride did turn alot of heads

Good on you for making the effort to see her off in Style by doing something she loved, and for sharing it with us!! :thumbup:

She must've been a real 'Life, be in it!' person & a real 'with it Lady' too! I'm glad you got to share some of that with her and with us; my condolences for your Family's loss, altho I'm pretty sure she'll still be ryding with you for many years to come. ;)

Sorry for your loss, but that was very cool.


I sold a bike to a guy who works at a local funeral home near me, he drives a Harley three wheeler with a trailer with glass sides as a Hurst. I believe they use it a lot for military funerals

They have one in Kingsport Tennessee also. We tried to just rent the trailer. But they say it comes all together and they have their own driver. Wife said if it wasn't are spyder and me driving she can go on four wheel.
