| Toby, 21 from Eastwood, comes from a large
family with 4 brothers. Toby 'phoned Scribe last
December after hearing from Blind Dogs Chatswood that
Muggaccinos were prepared to assist disabled people ride
tandems.
Toby was in a car accident when he was only a wee nipper. The trauma took-out nearly all his vision, and materially diminished function of his right side, particularly his right hand. As a result, Toby is more comfortable using platform pedals, than trying to click into cleats. Toby regularly works out a gym, and has legs a draft horse would kill for. So cycling 100+km rides is easy peasy.
The lad has a cheeky sense of humour, so if you try to take the Mickey out of him, expect to get as much back 'and some', as you give. |
