Then...
Jorge and Antonio were talking about you.
And i said that, but they called me liar.
But I want to prove it, because i'm not a liar.
That you exists.
And this guy here...
he's my nephew. And he asked me to bring the camera
to make a video, and upload to internet.
They also said to me, in that day, that you wanna drive a motorcycle too.
But you don't do this.
He don't. He won't do this.
No, it's too dangerous.
I think I can, but I'm very afraid to do this.
If we put him in a field, a soccer field...
Im able to tell that he can, if he train a little before.
I don't need to train. I just need to be teached how to drive a bike.
"Just go straight, just go straight!" And he'll be able to do in the field.
I think so...
But we can't insist, because he isn't trained.
How can you come from Arena to here, in a bicycle?
No problem. I can go anywhere.
Are you seeing this, Joaquim?
So, is it your memory...
or you have some kind of ability to do this?
To know the distance of every place that you go.
He used to ride in the road.
If he get a road that he never rode before, he can't go anywere.
I'll possibly go wrong, but in the known roads i go with no problem.
From "Sapé" to here he don't miss the right way.
And if you tell him the wrong way, he would't go. 'Cause he knows what's wrong.
Sure. He only knows the right way.
He created his own way to think, to know the correct timing to turn left or right and go towards.
Yes. But he has some map to remember.
I can hitch-hike and get a lift from him.
I get a lift from him, with no problem.
And im not afraid, cause he wont crash in the wire fence.
Is there anyone here that haves a computer?
Here in the farm... I think not.
I have some relatives in "Cruz das Almas" that have one.
I want to do a video of your ride.
And I want a demonstration of you in a bike, to put in the web.
I'll go! No problem man.
Where? In the road or the field?
Anywhere.
Where do you want, Joaquim?
Anywere. Where he feels better.
The field is better to do.
But here is fine too.
Its just to shoot a video. To show that you ride in a bike.
I'll get the bike.
Go forward a little bit.
More!
That's it.
Its fine!
Can you go up?
Isn't your legs weak or tired?
Can i go?
Yes. You can do whatever you want.
Take the right way. Go straight! Go straight!
Just go straight.
You can turn back now!
Come back!
Come in the other side!
Right!
Just go down!
Enough.
I think that any deficient has conditions to ride in a bike an be normal, like anyone.
I had sight until 9 years old. Then after I thought that I could ride too.
But you already known to ride before become blind.
No. When I was child I didn't ride.
You learned after you got blind.
Yes, you right.
What does you really had? A glaucoma?
Yes, a glaucoma.
How old are you?
I have 29 years old.
So, 20 years since you become blind.
That's it.
And you do everything like a normal person.
Everything as a normal guy.
Thanks, Pita! Thank you so much!
