Dear Forumites,

For the last 18 months or so I have been lending moral support to a rider from Kenya named Ibrahim Wafula in his bid to participate in the 2008 Paralympics. Ibrahim is an incredible athlete and true inspiration to me. Please take a few moments to visit his web site. http://www.iwafula.com/

I am sure you will feel inspired to assist him in his efforts too. His current need is a place to stay (for about 4 months) when he lands in the US on May 20th to train in the US for the Paralympics in Beijing in August of 2008. My family and I would like to take him in, but with our pending move west it's just not possible right now. If you are able and willing to help, please contact me, Eric or Ibrahim directly through his web site. If you would like any more information, please do not hesitate to ask.

Sincerely,

Kirk Pacenti

He doesn't have a destination yet as far as I know. He's trying to secure accommodations first. I think he'd like to train at altitude, but I am sure he'll stay wherever he can.
