Bikers Help to Fulfil Little Girl’s Dream

In Norman, Oklahoma, a group of bikers arrived at the doorstep of a little girl’s home to take her for a spin on their motorbikes.

Initially, it was just a Facebook post from the girl’s mother, stating that it was her daughter’s dream to ride a motorcycle.

But it will not be easy. Little Ryan Scroggin has a rare bone and joint disorder called arthrogryposis. Now, she is aged nine and has already gone through eight surgeries, with a high possibility of more as she continues to grow.

Her mother, Keke Farrar, said: “Every single morning, when she gets out of bed, her ankles hurt. Her back hurts. I usually have to take her to brush her teeth.”

Even if Ryan was in pain, she never gave up, and on 28th April, her mother made the fateful Facebook post that allowed her to live her dream.

 

“She’ll never be able to ride a bike, but a motorcycle she can do.” Farrar said.

Luckily, the post spread, and came to the attention of several bikers.

 

 

And on Sunday, dozens of bikers arrived at Ryan’s home to make her wish come true. If this isn’t sweet enough to make you go “aww”, they even made her an honorary member of their motorcycle clubs and took her for a ride around the neighborhood.

 

“I’m sure she was smiling the whole time under that helmet when she got on the motorcycle,” said Robert Cole, the man who helped organized Ryan’s ride. “Totally grateful. Can’t thank these guys enough for taking a little time out of their day and schedule to come do something and give back a little bit,” he continued.

After experiencing one ride, Ryan’s passion and desire for motorcycling grew even stronger, as she said that she still wants to be a biker when she grows up.

Having gone through that kind of experience, who wouldn’t? With enough memories to last a lifetime, Ryan must have been delighted. “That was cool because it was for me and it was cool,” she said.
