Ali Mclean Posted October 13, 2008 Share To Fellow Club Members and Cyclists, I have been up and about for the past 4 weeks on my new prosthesis. I am very grateful to the cycling community for making this possible for me, up until receiving my new prosthesis I was using crutches at work as a bike mechanic/salesman at Cycle lab Durban. My aches and pains have subsided and I am now back on the bike having completed my first triathlon yesterday at Midmar Dam. I am looking forward to improving my results at races as the leg has made it ever so possible. I will be at the 94.7 and I hope that I will be able to meet and thank some of you that made it possible for me to return to a normal life like I had before my accident. Kindest regards Oswald Kyddhttp://images.supersport.co.za/OswaldKyddOct1308_250.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbar Posted November 9, 2008 Share Hi Oswald,fine that you are back in the saddle with that performance!Perhaps we can meet us in SA next time. I am amputeed too, because I have less time, so I am not the endurance racer. I ride more tricky off road trails. You can look at my site www.barlage.orgGood to know that there are other amps who did it same way :-)CU - keep on fighting!jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
