That is definitely and totally awesome (and I dont use that term lightly). Note the wire or whatever that is. Would be interested to know how all that was designed to work.

That,s what you call dedicated. Another one is Dave Barr some of you CA. rider,s may know
him or of him. He is a double amputee who rode around the world. He wrote a couple of book,s. I was so impressed after reading a friend,s book I ordered both. The first is riding the edge. If you like reading and motorcycling give it a try. Just M. O. |

The "wire" is a steel cable, similar to a bicycle brake cable that runs from a point on the hook up the arm, across the upper back to a harness on the opposite shoulder. When she would flex her arm and tighten the cable, one side of the hook would open, relaxing her arm would allow it to close. A heavy elastic band is used to close the hooks tightly.
