Today I went on a ride to meet a man doing something most of us would consider impossible. He’s riding from Canada to Mexico…. in a wheelchair.
James Barnett has Muscular Dystrophy but he’s not letting it keep him from experiencing adventure. His goal is to raise money to promote adventures for other wheelbound people. While speaking with him today I caught just a bit of his passion. James dreams of riders with diseases like his own along with others like Disabled Veterans wounded physically but still capable of living life to the fullest and experiencing adventure joining him on a ride of Route 66 or other shorter adventures.
Riding with James for a few miles wasn’t just an amazing experience. It was an adventure.
You can learn more and support James at his website Wheelbound.Org
