About Me

Not only overcoming his physical set backs to be a world class hand cyclist but using his success as a way to motivate people with similar challenges to be the best they can be.Our goal is to inspire, motivate and educate the community on the potential of all athletes. We have many plans for 2007 and we encourage you to follow our Charity as we work to make a difference and follow Rocky as he reaches for his goal of making the 2008 Olympics.
