This is the story of Sandy Scott, his survival of a catastrophic broken neck during his fourth racing competition, and his determination and focus at getting back to racing his bicycle. After one year of excrutiating pain and riding a bicycle trainer in his garage, he exceeded his goal and won the State of Florida and USCF time trials and road races with record-breaking times, and he won the AMS Master Athlete Comeback of the Year Award in 2007 from "Geezerjock"/"Master Athlete" Magazine. The author, Rose Marie Ray, tells the story and then provides the secrets to cycling for fun and to win the gold medals that she and Sandy have been doing at local, national, and multiple state events. Chapters on bike maintenance, choosing the right bike and accessories, riding in a group, doing time trials, and other knowledge from six years of experience will help anyone interested in getting started. The sport is ideal for cardio workouts and having fun. Touring, riding a trail, or doing off road, cycling is for everyone and provides bikes where you can recline, use just your arms, or sit up in the standard position. It is easy on your body and gets you out and off of the couch! What a way to spend a beautiful day!

<p>Sandy Scott had it all: a beautiful country home, a successful husband, and the freedom to be a stay-at-home mom. Then the news crashed down on her like a Tsunami: her infant son Zachary not only had severe brain damage but probably wouldn’t live past his first birthday. As denial gave way to despair and grief, Sandy looked out over the new, strange world into which her family suddenly found themselves thrown and wondered if they would ever know happiness again. But it was in the very challenges that Zachary’s condition presented to her that she discovered her own hidden inner resources and a whole new level of compassion among other people. She eventually took on greater roles in the disability community and found her calling as a life coach. In Lessons from Zachary, Sandy shares the knowledge and insights she gained through her own personal journey of discovery and overcoming obstacles, showing us how to use our strengths to navigate life’s difficult situations to find meaning and lasting fulfillment. Scattered throughout her moving story are multiple useful tools from life coaching—Life Wheel, checklists, Miracle Question, and others—to help us develop our unknown potential.</p>
