It is almost the end of another season, we will have a few more events we will be attending this year, but this year has been very difficult on me physically. I have had two major operations, most recently August 2nd, and a long time recovering from each of them which has limited what we have been able to accomplish as far as events and personal goals. I am happy to say I have received two grants, one form the Challenged Athlete Foundation and another from Wheels 4 Wheels which have helped immensely with funds for racing and trying new forms of racing. Without their help this year I would not have been able to participate in much this year, so all thanks goes to them for their support for my personal goals. We still have a lot to accomplish this year and I look forward to competing more and helping even more people. Another update will happen as this season wraps up. Thanks again, everyone, for your support.

This year has flown by and must admit it has had its fair share of challenges. It was also a very productive year that had several successful events and we helped a significant number of people through our events with other organizations. We have found some shortcomings, both with the truck and with our program, but they are easy to address and move forward. We had an event with Craig Hospital get cancelled due to weather but we were able to attend their Pedal 4 Possible event which turned out to be a windfall for exposure to disabled individuals as well as networking and program ideas. The future is bright and promising, with the changes I am going to make, the sky is going to be the limit.

We had our initial event with Craig Hospital utilizing their peer mentor program to get our truck and idea in front of current and former patients of the facility. The weather presented a challenge as far as location and participation, but it did give us an idea of what we can change in the future to better serve others. We are discussing an event specific to my program versus piggy-backing a current event. This way I get the participants' eyes solely on the program and truly get to reach them. We did have extensive one-on-one time with several patients to explain every modification and how they can do the same with their dream cars, so that alone made this trip worth it, to inspire others is truly a blessing.
