Fast and Reliable: The One Legged Bike Messenger

[John the Monkey]

Found this on Bikehacks.com;

The next time you find yourself whining about riding in the rain or stiff headwind, all you you need to do is think of Dexter Benjamin. He lost a leg riding his bike and was homeless for a time, and he came back to become a messenger. This is 8 minutes well spent so set aside some time and take it in.

See the film here.

I used to regularly get passed on Commercial Road, E1, by a cyclist with one good (and very big) leg, and one withered leg. He was fast.
