Volunteer Experience

Hand Cyclist Race Day Mechanical Ridealong Support at N/A

April 2013 - Present (7 months)

Through Bike Cleveland I was introduced to a group of paraplegic and quadriplegic athletes that compete in

major local marathons and to have had the opportunity to provide ride along race day support. During

competitive races I provide mechanical support when needed in changing flat tires, wheel alignments, other

mechanical or safety issues and help alert and clear paths from other runners, competitors and staff of their

presence as the hand cycle bikes ride very low to the ground. This opportunity allows me the ability to

support other athletes as well as inspire myself.
