Wheels of Wonder Charity Bike Ride for Canine Companions (CCI) - Oct 2006

CCI held a 20 mile and a 4 mile charity bike ride starting in La Jolla, up the coast to Cardiff and then back. At the lunch after the bike ride, we got to talk with Kimberly and Alejandro Albor, the fastest hand cyclist in the world. Jason mentioned to them how he won the gold medal in the bike ride. A few weeks later, Jason got a package in the mail with Alejandro's first place medal from the Defi Sportif in Montreal, Quebec.

Jason was so excited. Kimberly and Alejandro, you guys are the best!

Alejandro Albor has numerous first place finishes including:

  • Winner, 2006 US Paralympics Cycling National Championships
  • Winner, 2006 IPC Cycling World Championships, Switzerland
