For those that haven't yet seen it...

That's pretty amazing... And the next video that pops up is also worth watching, as he talks about what went into making the bike.
 
Back in the "Michael Epstein Production" days of Mountain Bike Racing in SoCal (NORBA days of the 90's), there were quite a few cats who would roll the Snow Summit trails and access roads that were used for DH on the 4-wheeled chairs. This is pre- Tara Llanes.

Gave me chills then when lining up against them....kind of like this gave me chills when I first saw this.
 
A long time ago... I worked with quite a few disabled kids, so my perspective is probably a little different. There were some success stories, but they were not the norm. Watching him ride again, and hearing his passion come through in the 2nd video, is pretty amazing.

Thanks for sharing that...
