Re: My first wheelie as a paraplegic
I went to see stuarts bike in pasadena today.The bike is very stable with the landing gear down.I talked to the guy who helped stuart set the bike up,and they both said they would help me in building my own bike.
I found out the guys name in the video is lee beaver and stuart helped him set his bike up.
The shitty thing is lee is trying to take all the credit for the bike in the video when in fact it was stuarts idea.Just like the credit go to the man that built the first bike.
I slso found out that when stuart races he dosnt use the landing gear on his race bike at all! Now thats impressive!

Re: My first wheelie as a paraplegic
wow is what I have to say, to be honest I thought this post was a joke. upon reading 5 pages of this I would be honored to shake this gentleman's hand.
The courage & strenth to get back onto something with 2 wheels. I commend you.

I've got a couple people to talk to now, too, but I don't even have names yet, just asking around and a few people know of others who are doing the same. Great stuff, passion. One thing is for sure, you are not alone.
And another thing is, you are amazing.
