Cycling for Polio Eratication

A 28-year-old polio survivor, Ramesh was adopted from India by Canadian parents in 1982. He can walk with the assistance of braces and crutches; however, his legs are not strong enough to propel a conventional bicycle. Instead, he rides using a hand cycle which relies upon his powerful upper body strength to maximize distance and speed.

75% of the money he is raising by riding across Canada on a hand-powered bicycle will go to Rotary's Polio Plus.
