Folks, this is an awesome letter…and a prelude to the next blog entry….it comes to us from Jerry and Larry Lewis…
Twin Dreams Come True
After over 50 years, Jerry and Larry Lewis finally realized their dream. The twins, born and raised in Walla Walla, Washington, started riding motor scooters of all types at around the age of 12 to 14. The twins would take turns riding on the paper boy’s Cushman scooter as he rode up and down the sidewalks throwing papers.
Between the twins, since about 1958 or so they have owned 10 to 15 different types of motor scooters, motorcycles, bicycles or anything you could ride on. About 1957 a family friend owned a Mustang motorcycle that spiked a great deal of excitement around town. The twins have talked about the Mustang style of bike for years, never thinking they could own one some day.
After graduating from high school the twins left Walla Walla and went into the service. Larry returned to Walla Walla, raised a family and continued to ride motorcycles. Jerry returned to California, raised his family, and still rides. Over the years, the twins always wanted to go into a motorcycle shop and buy two bikes just alike. After looking at hundreds of bikes, there was always something in the way. The twins never found two bikes just alike.
About two years ago Jerry heard about the California Scooter Company and liked what they had to offer. As time passed they still held on to the dream. In June 2013 Jerry, his wife, his daughter, and his grand daughter were on their way to Temecula, California, and they stopped in to visit CSC Motorcycles. All of hurdles of the past came down and the dream came true. The twins continued to talk regarding the Mustang style and decided to fill two dreams: We finally get to own a Mustang type bike and they are just alike. Since the greeting at the door by TK Bicicche we are blessed to deal with a team of employees who are as excited about the twin dream as Larry and I.
The two P-51 Classics will be picked up on October 1, 2013. Larry and his wife Thelma are coming down to Azusa from Walla Walla, Washington and Jerry and his wife Ruth Ann are coming down from Elk Grove, California. The twins will return to Elk Grove, where they will fulfill another part of the dream and go for a ride together through the foothills. It’s never too late to dream…the twins will be 71 years old in November, 2013.
Thank you and God Bless, and a special thanks to CSC for building two dreams into one reality!
Jerry and Larry Lewis
