I once saw a bloke (I think it was a bloke) riding a motor bike near where I live, with his left arm missing. He seemed to manage ok as he peeled off at the roundabout at the top of my road (nuggitt knows which roundabout)
I once knew a young fella who, unfortunately, is no longer with us, who also had his left arm amputated. This was after a motorcycle road traffic accident. I first met him when I took some loose wheels in to a local tyre house to have new tyres fitted. Yes you've guessed it, he was a tyre fitter. The way he did the job one handed was unbelievable, though to him it was nothing special. I struggle with a push bike tyre During the course of my work (motor mechanic) I had need to take cars and trucks to him for new tyres fitting and other things, tyes and wheel related, and he did it all
I often wonder if it was him on the motor bike I saw that day, but sadly I'll never know now
