Drew does a no-hands, trackstanding self portrait "panda" shot. And he claims, "I can track stand till the cows come home, but I can't ride no hands." Yes, he's trackstanding in his apartment in this photo.

Yeah those cyclists with severe handicaps really impress me. When I lived in Champaign County, Illinois, I met a few olympic handcyclists -- these are people with both legs missing or disabled and they race with their handcycles. A couple of them let me try their rig out -- their amazing to ride!
Thanks for the shout out!
