Major L Tammy Duckworth Keynote Speaker at 2011 Face of America Ride .MOV

This is one of the strongest and most courageous Americans I have met. Her words are true for disabled military and civilians.....Attitude, a sense of humor, and conviction...Major Duckworth and World T.E.A.M. (The Exceptional Athlete Matters) Sports are great venues and outlets for people of ALL ABILITIES....but mainly those of us who have been thrust into a category called "disabled." We need to find what makes us happy, healthy and free. Accessible athletics is a fabulous way to take back our lives and than you WTS and other orgs which realize how important a healthy life is-Cycling is special to me and riding with ohers with disabilities is great...It makes me feel free. Enjoy a wonderful speech by a true American Hero.

Thanks so much,
A Disabled American recumbent cyclist who loves her friends, family, country, life, and achieving things I was told I could not do.......
