Ted Amrine: TEAM Arizona Rider of the Month August 2015!
Last Updated: December 1st, 2020
There are a lot of reasons why folks decide to take the Basic RiderCourse. To fulfill a dream. To earn a motorcycle license. And for seventy-nine (79) year old Ted Amrine, it was to see if he had the physical ability to get back on two wheels again. Part of the beauty of the Basic RiderCourse is that it gives a participant, in a safe environment, the opportunity to see if motorcycling is for them. For some folks, the answer may be no. For some folks, an emphatic YES! For Ted, it helped him reach the decision that three wheels will be best for him. For his pragmatic, considerate, serious approach to motorcycling, we named Ted our Rider of the Month for August 2015.
Ted is no stranger to motorcycling. He rode trail bikes for almost eighteen (18) years. He hasn’t been on a motorcycle since 1978 but he missed the fresh air and the opportunity to travel to different places on a motorcycle, so he took the course. He was unsure if his reflexes and balance were sufficient enough to be on two wheels. His conclusion? His balance and reflexes are better than expected but he thinks three wheels will be just the ticket.
His advice? Why live in doubt? Take the course and take it seriously. You’ll be happy you did.
Ted, we wish you a happy return to motorcycling. We’re glad we could be there for you on your journey. Safe travels!
