I wanted to take a quick minute to recognize a true fucking badass.
Meet Meg Fisher, one gear, one leg, one hell of a bike racer.
Track, Mountain Biking, Road Cycling, Triathalon (on and off road), 24 Hour Solo Mountain Biking, this gal does is it all, with national and world championships to prove it.
That trackface is priceless.
Used to see her around Missoula and riding up in the Rattlesnake all the time.
she lists Geek Love among her favorite books, very nice!
I want to be her when I grow up!
now this girl is one bad ass motha’ fucka’. BAF in a totally different way. my buddy charles, the one armed cyclist, just got accepted to the paralympics cycling team. he leaves for camp this month. im so stoked for him. and for meg.
Jesus do not fuck with Meg Fisher. She knows pain and is harder than you.
YEAH! I came across her pic here the other day… http://www.flickr.com/photos/lacrepat/6279984333/

Baller…as some would say.
Check out Matt http://bratmadley.blogspot.com/ another bad ass, less than a year removed from losing ‘righty’ to cancer he was picked to represent the USA at ParaCycling worlds.
Racers in the elite Masters group at local CX races, he’s a bad ass too, and the nicest guy you’ll ever meet. glimpses of him at 2:15 and 2:51 here

…chick definitely looks badass…
…props, girl…
She looks like she will rip your jugular out & spit it upon your still twitching corpse.
But other than that I’m sure that she is a lovely person.
There’s nothing to say. These pictures and accomplisments speak VOLUMES of determined humanity
Holy shit I thought she was bad ass and when I looked more closely at her pictures I KNEW she was bad ass.
Meg, bad ass competitor, sweet kid. Momma 40 Hands and I saw her at last year’s NYC triathelon. I believe she came in 2nd in her paraclass. We drove her and 3 of her friends from the race finish back to pick up their bikes. Six people in a Mazda 3 was a bit of a stretch. So Meg and one of her friends removed their legs so that all 4 could fit in the back seat! When we got to the bikes they got out of the car, put on their legs and off they went
this was a prodigious cut thanks for the help.
