Jamie gets a special bike

May 11, 2012 in Video

Beautiful and happy 6 year old Jamie Latulippe is a wonderful child who also has Cerebral Palsy. Today was a magnificent day; the Great Lakes Chapter Southeast Michigan Harley Davison Club donated this very special $4000 bike. This bike is more than just fun for Jamie, it will be a means to build leg strength and coordination in the hopes she one day will be able to walk unassisted. The family wishes to thank the Great Lakes Chapter for its remarkable kindness and generosity.
