SPECTACULAR SCENERY It's been called one of the most scenic stretches of railroad in the country. Winding through eleven tunnels and over nine high steel trestles, the 46-mile route crosses the rugged Bitterroot Mountains between Idaho and Montana. The route of the Hiawatha is best known for the long, dark St. Paul Pass or "Taft" Tunnel which burrows for 1.8 miles under the state line. The tunnel, which had been closed for repairs, reopened for use by mountain bikers, hikers, and wheelchair users the end of May 2001. INCREDIBLE HISTORY "The best darn railroad in the world" is the way one old timer referred to the Milwaukee Road. The incredible history of the construction of this line was followed by the unprecedented electrification of several long stretches of the main line, forming the longest electrified mainline railroad in the world.

Flow
Finding flow in your riding is a lot like eating a bowl of ice cream. There are few things better in mountain biking than riding a smooth, sweeping line through any section. While the trail you are on can certainly contribute to your flow, it's really up to you to make it happen. Concentrating on finding the best flow as you ride is a great way to improve your skills and style. Looking farther down the trail and planning your line as you approach it is probably the best way to get the most flow from your ride. You shouldn't be looking at the ground where your wheels are, you need to look far enough ahead that your mind will expect what is going on underneath you, while at the same time, it's looking for what's on the way. Mastering this skill lets you pick lines that can jump through the roughest sections and sweep from curve to curve with the most flow. permalink comments (0)
Switching Bikes
There are lots of ways to improve your skills. One of these that a lot of people overlook is switching bikes.

48. OFFROAD WHEELS
However, an additional benefit is that wheelchair knobby tires are grey as opposed to black mountain bike tires commonly used on complete off-road wheel
http://www.wheelchairjunkie.com/offroadwheels.html
Published 6/05,
H ere's a riddle for you: What do cowboys, skiers, and city slickers all have in common?
Off-road wheels, that's what. Whether you're crossing a pasture on your ranch, transferring into your monoski at a ski resort, or hopping curbs on your way to work in Manhattan, you may receive increased mobility with big, fat, honkin', off-road wheels on your ultralight manual wheelchair. With wide, low PSI tires, stout rims, heavy-gauge spokes, and recessed hubs, off-road wheels can dramtically increase your ultralight wheelchair's traction, shock absorption, and durability. Still, not all off-road wheels are created equal, nor are off-road wheels for everyone's liking, so there are a few sage secrets toward getting the right match for your manual wheelchair and lifestyle.
Tempting Tires
When many think of off-road wheels, knobby tires come to mind. And, indeed, tires are a practical starting point. If you don't want to purchase complete off-road wheel assemblies, which cost around $300, both Primo and Kenda tire brands offer knobby tires to fit common wheelchair rims, specifically to replace 24"x1" (25-540), 24"x1-3/8" (37-540), and 25"x1" (20-559) tires. The unquestionable benefit of simply purchasing tires is that, for under $40, you can add knobby tires to your existing wheels. However, an additional benefit is that wheelchair knobby tires are grey - as opposed to black mountain bike tires commonly used on complete off-road wheel sets - so they won't leave black marks around your home.

Interview With Stacy Kohut
Stacy Kohut is a Paralympic and World Champion Gold Medal winner. He has competed and won medals at the Paralympics in Lillehammer, Norway and Nagano, Japan. He is also part owner/operator of R-ONE, a four wheel downhill mountain bike called a Fourcross, that is used in the integrated (meaning disabled and able bodied people compete together) sport of Fourcrossing. Click to see a video bio of Stacy Kohut . Dr Gene Emmer from 'Wheelchair' recently interviewed Stacy in order to better understand the opportunities and challenges of a champion athlete who happens to be in a wheelchair. W: Tell us more about your athletic accomplishments. We know you have earned a lot of medals. How did you get started? SK: First of all, let me say how honored I am to have you interview me, this site is a vast collection of info and knowledge, and it’s very cool to be asked to be a part of it. My athletic achievements have always been apart of my life. Starting in the 1980’s with the sport of BMX racing and Off Road MX racing, continuing throughout my teenage years in the non-competitive sport of skateboarding, then into my life as a sit down athlete. I broke my back in 1992, so when you sit back and take a look at the bigger picture, my achievements in sit sports just blend right in with the rest of my life.

Don's approach to this design was to use components that are manufactured in high volume for other products. By this method, we enjoy a low piece price cost. He removed every extra feature possible, ending up with the least expensive design that will satisfy a large portion of the world's need for wheelchairs. This wheelchair design lends itself to manufacture by highly efficient companies where assembly costs are relatively low. A LAWNCHAIR?
For a wheelchair you need a chair. He selected the least expensive chair he could find - a molded plastic patio chair. Perfect! It's waterproof. It's durable. It's comfortable to sit in for long periods. It's washable. It's made in many countries. You can drill holes in the arms and legs so it can be mounted on the frame.

Extreme Fourcross Offroad Racing and Riding
Fourwheel Downhil Mountain Biking, or ' Fourcross ', is an exciting new sport which utilizes the growing popularity of lift assisted mountain bike parks, which are popping up everywhere on the planet.
The riding style is an insane combination of dh mountain biking,rally car driving,high-end off road truck racing, and of course motorcross/supercross. The sport is available to all people who enjoy openwheel,fourwheel,offroad riding and racing action!
Ride for fun, Race to win.
John Therien and Stacy Kohut, co-owners/operators of R-ONE, are the second generation generators of this new sport, they push the limits of Fourcross technology. "R-ONE's Fourcross enables myself, and the other users of the Fourcross, the ability to have solid, dependable, and managable integration with the riding or racing machine. You don't sit on a Fourcross by R-ONE, you sit in it. Your Fourcross and you become one." says Stacy Kohut. Stacy drops into and screams down DH courses at over 40 mph and tweaks airs and rails corners the whole way down.
John Therien and R-ONE believe that four wheel mountain bikes can appeal to a wide market, including abled-bodied participants. "Anyone can ride a Fourcross by R-ONE", exclaims Therien.

  • About Wheelchairs for Peace
    In 2002, Sister Cities International and the Wheelchair Foundation embarked on a five-year initiative to distribute wheelchairs to sister city communities throughout the world. The Wheelchair Foundation has committed a total of $4.5 million in matching funds to be combined with funds raised by sister city chapters to deliver wheelchairs to children and adults living with disabilities over the five-year initiative.
    Get your community involved
    Send a container of wheelchairs to your sister city. A container of 280 wheelchairs can be funded by raising $21,000. This amount is fully matched by the Wheelchair Foundation. (Whereas normally, a container of 280 wheelchairs actually costs $42,000 to manufacture and deliver, or $150 per wheelchair.) While this is a significant fundraising goal, don't let the amount intimidate you! Numerous sister city organizations have been successful in finding individual donors and community partners to make this worthwhile project happen.
    You now have the option to sponsor a 20-foot container of 110 wheelchairs.

The blue trail tends to be drier than the green trail.

    Last night I dreamed I was catering for about 700 people at an International Cross-country Wheelchair Racing tournament. The chairs were in a few categories: Human-powered Electric Gasoline-powered Free Wheels ranged from the sublime: Mountain Bike Tyres, to the extreme: Michelin's new Tweel (airless with polypropylene spokes where the tyre would be) to the ridiculous: Monster Truck wheels, on earthmoving rims. In all, a good time was had by young and old.
