I think Kenny from Texas does. I think that is amazing. She must have
an unbelievable amount of dermination. It's tough enough learning to
ride with everuthing being 100%, I am sure seeing her ride is very
inspirational.

Yep, a friend of mine I've known since the late '80's has a prosthesis
and does road races and mountainbike races. I was very impressed when he
hopped on my Muni and rode away with it last summer. He lost his leg
just below the knee in an automobile accident several years ago. He was
actually faster than me when I was still racing. He's quite an
inspiration and a heck of a nice guy 😄

KC, how tall was the giraffe? Were there people around to catch her if
she fell? I could imagine it turning out pretty badly if she fell from
like 5 feet or so with the prosthetic leg. Am i wrong? Any idea of her
competence with big falls? I can't even imagine what it would be
like.

There's also a pro skateboarder with a prosthetic leg (starting below
the knee). He's really good too. I couldn't imagine landing kickflips
down big sets with a foot that you can't control. I was too terrified
with my own feet. I think he's been working with designers to develop
more athletically-oriented prosthetics.

She did have a pretty bad fall that looked like it could potentially
damage the leg but she just got back up and tried again.
It was a 5 foot giraffe.

I've seen pics of a unicyclist with a protestic leg. But now reading
someone is doing a giraffe... wooooow, respect.

Yeah, that's great to hear. I wonder what the risks are of falling on a
prosthetic leg from a giraffe.
