Thanks ingrahamm, I appreciate the welcome. I hope to see more people with injuries/disabilities riding in the future. I've been told my injury is sort of common in high speed accidents since when a person is thrown off at high speed, there's a tendency of the arm to drag behind them causing injury to the Brachial Plexus nerves that go into the arm. I tore all 5 of those nerves off the spinal cord itself so there wasn't anything they could do with those nerves. The Dr's tried taking nerves from my legs & splicing them into the opposite arm then bringing them over to my injured arm. It has brought back a little movement in the shoulder but not much more.

If anybody needs any info on this subject, please feel free to contact me.
