Interesting piece on being a disabled cyclist, and the fine points of continuing to use older, vintage equipment. Steel is real.

Nice thanks for sharing. My older brother has one arm and with the help of Sheldon Brown I built up his old 80's Shogun that he used to ride all over New England so that he could ride with one arm. He's an amazing golfer too, kicks my arse every time. Is it a disability? Yes but for the most part you'd never know it.
