In Belgium we have also a one armed motocross rider and if I'm not mistaken he once compete in a race in America.




His name is Benoit Pauwels.

Amazing rider.

Nice to see Elsworth (with the helmet cam) again. Haven't been to that track for years.
Happened to me back in the day....at the old Riverside International Raceway Viewfinders GP. On the last lap (10 laps around a 10 mile track) I was dead tired and shorted the water jump, almost crashed bad and this guy goes flying by me...when I saw he had only one arm I was shocked...tried like hell to catch him but couldn't and he finished right in front of me. His one good arm was better than my two pumped up ones...He was riding one of those Husky automatics...remember those? Smile

Good stuff, Inspirational story...it's easy to forget (at least for me) that obstacles are only what we make them to be in our minds.

I just talked to Rekluse.
The EXP clutch maintains all stock components with the exception of 3 friction plates.
The drawback is that the clutch is hard to pull when you desire manual operation.

The S Start Pro is all billet, super trick and very light clutch lever feel.
When I called Rekluse, the guy Mike was real helpful. They offer a 30% discount for disabled riders.

EXP 399.00 - 30% = $279

Z Start Pro $629 - 30% = $440

I hope we can get enough people here to chip in and make it happen.

I've never done this. Does someone know how to set up a PayPal deal?
Can we PayPal Rekluse directly?

Setting up a PayPal account is very easy, then you can add your bank account so you can deposit it directly into it and then simply pay Recluse.

I am just a broke gimper but got 20 on it
