Missourian Bruche Hibbett, who lost a leg in a climbing accident in a 2001 climbing accident in the Tetons, has completed a cross-country bicycle ride for Amputees Across America, according to a story on Jacksonville.com:
The trip started at the Pacific Ocean on May 31 and was coordinated by Amputees Across America, a national support group that promotes the journey.
The cyclists stopped at hospitals, rehabilitation centers and amputee support groups along the way to increase public awareness of amputees as people with active lifestyles.
