Two BMX athletes with disabilities show how nothing is more inspiring than seeing others overcome adversity, and their talents take them to places where nothing is impossible.
Synopsis
In Colombia, Julian Molina tells us how he came to become a world BMX figure, having lost one of his legs in an accident at the age of 12. The bicycle became part of his own body. Also in an accident, Adolfo Almarza from Melipilla Chile lost both legs at age 12. The bicycle and his effort helped him become the only athlete in the world to run in the elite category in the most extreme disciplines in current mountain biking.
