Dear all, Thank you to all of you for your kind, caring, loving and encouraging words that you sent to Scott, Cam and me. I am still overwhelmed to see that so many of you from around the world have reached out to us, trying to give us comfort, sharing their thoughts and letting us know that we are not alone. It truly means a lot to us. Thank you to each and every one of you for being you; the world is blessed to have people like you in it. You all keep the positive attitude, enthusiasm and positive outlook on life and never give that up. Neither will I. Stay safe, and I am sending all my best greetings to you! Take care! Tina with Scott and Cam Hallo an euch alle, ich danke euch allen für eure lieben, mitfühlenden, herzlichen und ermutigenden Worte, die ihr Scott, Cam und mir geschickt habt. Ich bin immer noch ganz überwältigt zu sehen, dass uns so viele von euch aus der ganzen Welt die Hand gereicht haben, um uns Trost zu spenden, ihre Gedanken mit uns geteilt haben und uns zu verstehen gegeben haben, dass wir nicht allein sind. Das bedeutet uns wirklich sehr viel. Vielen Dank an jeden einzelnen von euch, dass ihr so seid wie ihr seid; Menschen wie ihr macht die Welt zu einem besseren Ort. Bewahrt euch eure positive Einstellung, euren Enthusiasmus und eure positive Lebensauffassung und gebt diese niemals auf. Ich werde es auch nicht tun. Passt auf euch auf; ich sende euch allen meine besten und herzlichsten Grüße! Tina mit Scott und Cam

My heart breaks for you having to stop riding. I too am faced with quitting motorcycles. I am 72 and have ridden for 60 years safely. But last Thursday something was on the road and when I swerved to miss it, I crashed my BMW R80RT and wound up in the hospital with broken bones, a punctured lung and a concussion. I don’t remember what was on the road. I am so thankful my wife of 49 years was not riding with me. I think a 72 year old’s slower reaction time may have been the cause. I may never know. But I’ve decided that it’s time for me to stop riding. And I am selling my bikes too. We have to be 100% able when we ride. I am at home recovering from my crash. My wife is taking such good care of me. But I won’t put her through this again. My focus is to enjoy my family and enjoy the blessings I have in my life. Good luck. Bill😎👍

You're brutally honest and a woman of integrity, I wish you well...mind yourself

You had the best of intentions and support from Scott to start riding, but life throws us a curve ball. Look after yourself and your young family. So brave and courageous of you to make this vlog, well done.

My wife is 37 and has MS but it’s very very mild. We first noticed it when one of her pupils dilated on its own out of nowhere. She’s on meds, some of which causes her hair to thin which is another confidence crusher on its own. She goes for blood work and brain scans regularly. Just know that you’re not alone, stay positive. I wish you both long healthy happy lives. Keep your chins up!

110% respect lady❤

Tina, all the hugs in the world to you, Cam and Scott. You will never be alone, were all here for you all.

You are a very brave lady and I hope you have a long and happy life with your family ❤

I wish you, Scott and your son the best of luck!!!

My heart goes out to you. My mother has MS. I live in Alberta, Canada. We have most of the MS cases in Canada. Don't give up on riding. Get a small bike to ride in town with. Lots of new treatments are coming out. Several promising trails ars happening in Quebec and India. Don't give up. Keep your brain working and create new connections. You are young, healthy and strong. MS won't beat you. Mexico has a stem cell treatment that has also shown to reverse and delay some symptoms in the hands and feet. My mother has been living with MS for 20 years and still manages to drive and hit the same concrete pillar in the parking garage. Her red car is slowly turning yellow in one spot.

My wife passed from complications of MS. I certainly know what you are dealing with. Fortunately, the advances they have made in the treatment of MS have come a long way the past 20yr. She passed in 2005 and had Chronic-Progressive MS. Stay strong and listen to your body. You have my utmost respect for your decision. ❤

This is indeed heart breaking... I hope you are able to get all the support you need medically and at least enjoy the riding as a pillion.

Excellent video ---- honesty and heartfelt integrity. Nice to watch your helper learning the skills. He will treasure this video forever.

Such a brave lady, wishing you the best ❤

Both you and Scott are very kind souls. Always loved Scott’s honest opinion on motorcycles. It is heartbreaking to see you quit riding for now but this challenging period will pass and you will be back on a bike. God bless you with good health and courage to steer through this turbulence. Lots of love from Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦

I have only just come across this video, clicking on it because I thought to myself whyanyone would want to sell such a lovely bike. Sadly surprised why and I do feel very sorry for you young Lady. Looks like you have a lovely family right there behind you so that is a massive 'plus'. I must say I cannot imagine anything worse than selling up on motorcycles in that way. Im 61 and am in love with my motorcycle today as I was when I first sat on my first bike when I was 18. Hope the sun shines above you and your family for many years. Thank you for bravely sharing this here x

In the end, each rider makes their own decision, and makes their own risk/benefit analysis. We support your decision and wish you the best.

Tina, first and foremost I hope you are getting the medical and emotional clinical support you need. I know it must be heartbreaking to give up on something you enjoy, but brave of you to realize your limitations before an injury occurs. (We are not all that smart.) I hope you will still be capable in the future to give us your impressions from the pillion / passenger perspective of some of the bikes Scott tests, your insights are invaluable for those of us who have to make some of our buying decisions including the perspectives of passenger comfort. I hope you will remember that the subscriber base of Scott’s channel will always have you in our thoughts and prayers.

My best wishes go out to you, my beautiful wife was diagnosed with MS, 20 odd years ago. She used to ride her own bike along with owning and riding a horse. My/ our advice is to keep as active as you can, perhaps not a motorcycle, just anything to keep movement going. Do not give up! Scott you need to step up, it's easy to try and put it on the back foot, it creeps up. Learn about it, you will have to change a lot of things in your life, not all bad. Talk to people who are in the same boat if you can this helps a lot.

Sounds like a wise and understandable decision. Many people are afraid to even get on a motorcycle these days, so your riding has been an exceptional achievement you will always have accomplished.

In admiration I've watched this video. No words are fitting and I wish you strength and wisdom and positivity!

Sorry to hear of your health issues; an old and dear friend of mine has lived all his long life with MS and has constantly had to work around it- that you've been able to ride is amazing. Very sad that you've now had to make the right decision and stop riding but you had a red hot go. Good on you.

Stay strong! you have family beyond Scott and your son. 🙏🏾

OMG this is a heartbreaking message, Tina and Scott! I only read it after three weeks but I wish you tons of strength! God bless you, and may the MS be a mild one. I hope to see you every now and then in Scotts vlogs. High 5 to you, Scott and Cam!

Hope your MS will be manageable and allow you to have a good life. It was brave to share your personal information and thoughts with the KZfaq world and l am sure all your viewers will be sending their best wishes Take care

Thank you for sharing Tina, this must have been a painful but courageous decision to do this video. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I'm so sorry to hear this news Bettina. I remember how excited you were bringing the motorcycle home. I wish you and your family all the best in the future.

My family has been touched by MS, I wish you love and strength dealing with it

Tough news for you Tina and Scott, and so much to cope with and manage. Best wishes to you both for strength when you need it, fun when you can, and love always. 🙏

Sorry to hear about your MS diagnosis. I think you're doing the right thing and I hope you find something else you love doing! All the best.

Bon courage! I wish you and your loved ones all the strength to deal with this extreme challenge.

Sorry to hear about the M.S wishing you all the best to you and Scott Bob

Like this channel is named after you have nothing to prove! And I mean that as in you are being very brave by this decision. I hope you can find fullfilment in other parts of life. My heart goes out to you and your family. Your husband helped me make the decision of purchase for the F900XR and haven't regreted a day since. Ill will pray for you and your family. Salute from Portugal.

That bike is such a beauty with the panniers, you, et al. Wish you the very best with your health. The things you mention are ones every rider confronts. But it is only you who is right to determine if you can work through them. Pardon my enthusiasm but a hug from a fellow rider and the very best wishes 😊

This is a sad video. I wish all of your family a lot of strength that you will definitely need.

I'm wishing you strength and luck. I was diagnosed with a fairly rare autoimmune disease when I was 41. Doctors originally thought it was MS because it also comes with neuropathy. It's been an up and down ride over the last 20 years so I think I understand the challenges you face. All the best and thank you for sharing.

Thank you for your honesty and for riding as long as you have been able to. Sending you every good wish and prayers for the future. 🤗

I am sorry to hear of your issues, and admire your honesty and bravery in your approach, you have my total and utmost respect .

That’s sad news Bettina, I wish you all the best with your MS and hope Scott and Cam give you all the love and care you deserve!

This woman is honest and wise to give up riding. I’ve also seen men in their 60’s and 70’s struggling with bikes that are now too heavy for them to comfortably manage. I’m 77 and sold my Honda ST1100 because it’s too heavy for me now. I replaced it with a much lighter bike and I’m enjoying riding so much more.

Courage. Sorry to hear your diagnosis. Thank you for honesty. It will help many people. There comes a time when all have to move on in life.

Very impressed with your honesty, sincerity, and camera presence! Im sure Scott is very proud. I’m sure your riding days are not over yet. take care of yourself. I am also short. I did not think about having it lowered. Great thing to consider.

It's been amazing watching you and Scott grow the channel through the years. Part of being an excellent rider is not only your technical skills, but also looking inward at yourself, and knowing when to hold'm and knowing when to fold'm as they say. Making a call like the one you did proves that you have the traits of an excellent rider. It's not always easy being honest with ourselves. Cheers to you, and wishing you the best fight against ms. Thank you for letting us ride along with you both on your adventures and journeys.

Thank you for having the courage to share your story. Wishing you the best x

100% respect for you and your honesty,be strong,you have a good man and son to fall back on, greetings from Belgium

Tina, I was moved by your situation. I have degenerative peripheral neuropathy, I can't stop thinking about motorcycles, but at age 58 in my condition, I'm not sure I should get another bike. But it's hard, I know. Truth is, as much as we love bikes, there are still many other things we can enjoy. Stay positive, keep living, and be thankful for what you do have. Best wishes to you ❤

I respect your openness about the health issue you're confronted with and wish you and your family well in managing it. My wife doesn't ride herself but enjoys riding pillion with me.....I try and take her to quiet and beautiful places, so I hope that you'll still be able to enjoy motorcycling together for many years to come......Bless you for sharing.

Dont let your dreams die so easy get smaller slower easier bike as soon as you can! Get healthy! Keep up the good fight!!!! Never get discouraged!!! God bless you 🙏🏿

I am so very sorry to hear of your health issue. I wish you nothing but the best. You had me tearing up as you told us of your condition. How brave you are and how brave I feel you will continue to be. I know you have the love and support of your family and friends. Continue to take good care of you. Sincerely.

All the best. Appreciate your video and know it’ll make the next person very happy too

Your open and honest story touches my heart. I pray for the best for you and Scott. And it’s a lovely bike, wish I had room for it, but I’m sure it will see quickly!!

Das ist sehr mutig, sich dem Internet so zu offnen. Respekt! Die besten Wunsche an beide von euch.

All the best Tina, to you and your family. I got a Trident as my first bike after passing my test and your videos were helpful in choosing it.

All the best moving forward. You will have many people like me that will send prayers and good wishes your way. We all have challenges in life but we must make the most of it.

Thank you for sharing this with us, not an easy thing to do. Wishing you well and I’m sure your bike will find a good new home.

Love seeing your family being so supportive

Wishing you well,best of health.Your son is going to be a very good rider,stay strong.❤

I bought my Trident just last fall, it’s my first bike, I didn’t even have a license yet. While it sat in my backyard shed over winter I’d watch as many KZfaq videos as I could on riding, the Trident and its accessories. I remember after watching the install of that windscreen and hand guards thinking, “she seems like a genuinely sweet person, and she’s modding a Trident!”; it hit me harder then I expected watching you now point them out as a selling feature. Sorry to see you having to sell. Thank you for the enjoyable and informative videos, I wish you and your family all the best.

Tina, you‘re still, and all the more, priceless. All the best for you and your family.

I've seen the video of your first riding training with Scott years ago - I remember thinking that I could learn to be patient like Scott if my wife ever wanted to learn riding (she never did). Then there's the video where you had this bike and rode it home with Scott, and then the upgrades you installed onto your bike. It's been a wonderful mini-journey between Scott's bike reviews. I'm greatly saddened by this turn of events and respect your courage and honesty. It's a beautiful bike and I hope it ends up in good hands.

I'm glad you got to ride (I assume) many, many times. I'm glad you have the brightness of mind to make this decision. I'm also glad that you are strong & courageous. I was not curious about the Trident, but you've made it something special. Additionally, you've made it ok to not ride any more; now others can also live without it.

Hi Tina! Zuerst Mal: Danke, dass du deine Gedanken mit uns teilst! Ich weiß noch, als wäre's gestern gewesen, wie du stolz wie Bolle dein Bike nach Hause geholt hast (während ich dachte, ich bin auch irgendwann noch an dem Punkt). Und während der Film noch vor meinem inneren Auge abläuft, gehen mir so viele Gedanken durch den Schädel... Ich versuch das mal irgendwie in Worte zu fassen, hoffentlich noch ohne allzu viel Öl ins Feuer zu gießen... Was das Motorradfahren angeht: Ich fahre erst die dritte Saison (lange Geschichte, hab mich mit 18 aus dem Motorradschein rausquatschen lassen, hab's über 20 Jahre lang bereut und dann mit Mitte 40 erkannt, dass es langsam Zeit wird eine Entscheidung zu fällen und es entweder endlich durchzuziehen oder den Gedanken für immer an den Nagel zu hängen). Ich bin immer noch in der Phase, in der alles neu und aufregend ist und jeder zusätzliche Kilometer und jede Fahrt auf einem neuen/anderen Modell einem das Gefühl gibt, man entwickelt sich und die eigenen Skills nach und nach weiter und zumindest noch, gilt "the sky's the limit". Ich erlebe gerade aktiv, wie genial sich das anfühlt (und das ist - fürchte ich - der Teil mit dem Öl ins Feuer). UND ich erinnere mich noch LEBHAFT daran, wie das am Anfang anders war, wie sich die erste Zeit in der Fahrschule angefühlt hat, als "alter Sack" zwischen 17-jährigen, als man an sich selbst - ungeduldig (und ungläubig) - keinen, kaum oder einfach zu wenig Fortschritt wahrnahm und sich innerlich fragte, ob man die richtige Entscheidung getroffen hat, den "Unsinn" überhaupt erst anzufangen. Zu dem Punkt wollte ich um nichts in der Welt zurück! Und ich will mir eigentlich nicht vorstellen müssen, wie es sich anfühlte, würde man mir alles was sich über die letzten paar Jahre entwickelt hat einfach wieder entreißen, noch bevor "das Abenteuer" überhaupt erst so richtig begonnen hat! Wenn einem dann auch noch die eigene Gesundheit einen Strich durch die Rechnung macht... Bitter. Einfach bitter. Und (leider, muss man sagen) weiß ich, was MS mit einem anstellen kann - wenn auch Gott sei Dank nur aus zweiter Hand. Hand auf's Herz: Ich weiß nicht, was ich sagen könnte um dir an dieser Stelle Trost und/oder Mut zu spenden, außer: Wir (und damit spreche ich sicher für die meisten hier) sind in Gedanken bei dir und deiner Familie. Ich wünsche euch viel Kraft, nur das Beste und so viel Gesundheit wie nur möglich. Und vor allem: Ich drücke dir, euch, und allen anderen MS Patienten der Welt die Daumen, dass ein Trupp schlauer Köpfe in nicht allzu ferner Zukunft eine Therapie entwickelt, mit der Betroffenen nachhaltig geholfen werden kann. Ich habe neulich erst in einer ernstzunehmenden Dokumentation gesehen, dass man den Körpern von Mäusen inzwischen nicht nur beibringen kann, mit dem Altern aufzuhören, sondern sich das (biologische) Alter sogar zurückdrehen lässt - das schließt offenbar sogar die Regeneration von Nervengewebe mit ein. Kürzlich hätte sich das noch wie Science-Fiction angehört, heute ist das eine wissenschaftliche Tatsache. Also: Kopf hoch! (Und ja, haltet mich ruhig für einen unverbesserlichen Optimisten...) Haltet die Ohren steif und vielleicht uns Follower hier hin und wieder auf dem Laufenden, damit wir wissen wie's dir geht. Die besten Wünsche! Viele Grüße! Und ich hoffe, man sieht dich trotz allem hin und wieder hier auf dem Kanal!

I can tell it's hard to talk about it, but want to thank you for the courage to share Tina! I've had some familiarity with MS due to the MS150 bike ride that used to be arranged in Minnesota every year. I've been a fan of the channel and also a Trident owner. Maybe it's time for Scott to get another touring bike or a little sports car so Cam can join the back road adventures :) Happy miles ahead to you all!

I don’t know you, but feel for you,this vlog just fell on my feed. The sense of loosing that freedom that a bike gives you came across very much. I too have realised that my limitations are going to force me to let go of this love for two wheels, this decision for you will enhance your life though ,with more time and energy to fight any physical challenges.Best wishes for you and your family.💪🏻

It's very, very brave of you to do this video. Take care of yourself and keep living your life with Scott and your son.

Really feel for you here. All the emotion is evident in your voice. You owe noone an explanation. I wish you the best possible future, given your brave revelation 🙏🏼

So sad to hear about your health issue, i wish you all the luck for your future. Stay positive , don't sweat the small things and remember to enjoy each day.

Very brave of you to be so honest about your condition. All the best, herzliche Grüße aus Norwegen.

It was heart-breaking to hear you talk about having to give up riding. I am truly sorry that you had to make that decision. However, your strength in making such a difficult decision greatly inspires me to face difficult situations head-on. ❤

Like the other fans, my heart breaks also. You seem like a sweet loving family, and I’m sad this has happened to you.

Big fan of the channel thanks for your candid talk Gorgeous bike! Triumph is a work of art Wish you all the best USA

It takes a lot to put this video out there and to making this hard decision, thank you for doing it and wishing you well. Also, amazing looking bike!

Good luck with the sale, I'm sure who ever buys it will be very happy with it You are one brave lady and good luck with the future Hopefully you will still be around to make Scott keeps on track with his content. And Scott more pillion perspectives please, no one does this on reviews, you have an expert pillion with you

I wish you all the best and all the love in the bikers-world!❤

Scott is a very lucky man to have you! That's big and sad news. Sorry to hear it. Very difficult to do this video with your full heart.

My prayers are with you and all the very best. Do take care of your health. Hope you won’t stop being a pillion as it’s probably a better to take in all the breathtaking views you have in Europe

Prayers and throughts sent. I have experience with close friends and family dealing with MS, be brave and stay strong.

An awful amount of respect for you, lady. Thank you for sharing your story. Take care ✌️

All the very best with your MS health issue. Yes -- not riding is a very sensible conclusion. Good on you and my wishes for a lot more avenues of joy in your life

Truly sorry to hear that news Bless you both and thanks for your input.

You are very brave! Wishing you all the best! You may have left the motorcycle but motorcycling will never leave you!

Courageous video - wishing you all the best!!

we wish you well , thank you for this amazing channel

you have a really wonderful bike and the accessories that you put clearly matches its design, i do hope that you'll take care of yourself after selling it, godspeed

The good think is, you had some good time with the trident and enjoy it. I hope you keep your strength and confidence for the future. Even if this selling step is sad, there is still enough time for beautiful experiences in future. Greetings from a trident 660 rider from Berlin.

All the best, Tina. Sorry to hear this. Appreciate the honesty and respect your strength! And what a great video. A true from the heart family production👏🏻🎥🎬

Bettina, thank you for your heartfelt honesty, regarding your reasons to stop riding. I applaud you for recognising and accepting what is best for you and your family. If I was in Germany, I would definitely buy your triumph, as shipping to Australia would be too much. Personally I wouldn’t like to see you a keep the bike and Scott rides it. The bike has such meaning as it was your first bike, you added the accessories became one with it. I am sure if you owed money and chose to keep it, I think the followers of the channel would donate to make sure you kept it in the family. Just my thoughts.

Tina, that was very brave of you to be so open and vulnerable about your MS. I’m holding good thoughts for you and saying a prayer for your well being.

So sorry to hear, and great courage in sharing, the bike looks amazing, hope you still can ride in back and still enjoy motorcycling.

I wish you all the best and better health in the days ahead. Miracles are not impossible....stay positive and push on❤❤

Very mature and self aware that you made the decision you did. Much Respect.

My son has MS so I can understand to some degree what you are going through. Just know that you can live a rich and full life despite your diagnosis. We all have limitations to some degree but most of us won"t admit to it so bravo to you for being brave enough to share your condition with us. The back of an RT isn't so bad either so sit back, relax and let Scott do all the heavy lifting! God bless you and know you have a good future ahead of you.

So sorry to hear about your MS. Praying for you, Scott and the family....

It's tough when health issues divert us from the way we would prefer to go. Good luck and best wishes to you, your family and friends. ❤

Hey Tina - great to see/hear you on the video. It takes courage to speak frankly like you have and I admire you for that. I am sorry to hear that you can’t ride the bike you like so much. Hope you can still get the pleasures of riding in whatever way you can, either on a different bike or as a pillion with Scott.

wish you and the family the best of luck! ❤❤

Good luck with managing your MS. I had to sell my beloved Tracer 900 two years ago in order to buy an electric wheelchair, due to massive fatigue problems caused by fibromyalgia. I am finally better and recently bought a Triumph Speed 400 because of the low weight and easy handling. It allows me to enjoy Mc riding without having to manage a heavy machine.

God bless you and look over you as you, Scott and your son as you go through this.

I wish you and the family the best of luck!

Bless you for being so open.
