I am a left leg amputee who loves to race and ride offroad and to ride a little motocross now and then. My left leg was amputated about eight inches above the knee after a dual sport versus pickup truck crash in 2005. I race with the Arkansas Hare Scramble Championship Series, and am racing MotoX at the Extremity Games in Michigan in late July and at the newly added MotoX Adaptive class at the XGames in Los Angeles on August first.
So how did a 36 year old one-legged woods racer from Arkansas end up invited to ride at the XGames? With an incredible amount of help and encouragement from people all over the US. This is an incredible journey I am on, and I am determined to enjoy the ride. For more of the story, check out my website at www.riderminus.com
