    just destroyed the ligaments in my right knee a few weeks ago diving off my bike around 40kmh onto concrete to avoid a car and wont be able to ride for a long time. Watching this man do it with one leg is so inspirational, I've been staying positive and telling myself ill be ok and ill ride again but deep down I'm hurt that I can't becuase biking is my greatest hobby, its my life. Watching my guy Leo here gives me hope! may he live his life to the fullest and let nothing stop him, and I hope I don't let anything stop me either. If i have to ride with one leg I will ride with one leg!
