He is incredible. There was an article a while back about how towed another guy around a wheelchair course when couldn't carry on. Knackered his own chair in the process too iirc.
Won a couple of golds and a silver at the 2012 Paralympics as well. Incredible coming back from that accident to achieve all that he has achieved.
He was at the 2011 Maratona dles Dolomites riding round with Paolo Bettini...
