via Info News Canada:

Sicamous motorcycle enthusiast who had her leg amputated last fall is
getting back on her bike next week for the first time since the operation.

Jackie Paul is not letting her limited physical abilities prevent her from
doing what she loves the most, riding her motorcycle, a Victory Kingpin
she calls Pearlgirl.

"I named her that because she is pearl in colour and she looks like a girl,
all sparkly and shiny," Paul said.

In order for Paul to ride with one leg, Pearlgirl had to have a makeover,
going from a bike to a trike with custom additions to allow for Paul to
safely ride and transport crutches. Having never been on a trike before,
Paul is excited to try something new and get back to biking, and she has
her motorcycle community to thank for it.
