I've followed this story since her accident. It gave me goosebumps to watch this.

Is she pedaling on her own? It looks like her physical therapist was actually moving the pedals?

She's sitting on a bike. Watch it...PS Does it rally matter? I believe inthe power of positive thinking when it comes to getting injured. If she thinks she's pedal and gains muscle memory and the amazing feeling of pedaling a bik...THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS....Not that long ago she was thought to be paralized. So Isn't anything gravey from that point forward???

looks to me like she's moving the pedals. the therapist is certainly assisting. the key for me is she's apparently moving intentionally...

Wow. Thanks for the insight, but I did in fact already watch it. I was hoping that maybe someone actually, you know, read her blog or something, or maybe had some information other than what was in the video.

It's wasn't a value judgment, just a casual question.

If she's pedaling with her own power (assisted or not) it means signals from her brain are getting to her legs. That would be much more significant than if someone was just moving her legs around on a exercise bike. Not to say that it would be insignificant or unimportant.

i watched the access true hollywood story on her accident and recent recovery, but when they showed the footage from the race the camera just goes out of the picture and is only on the 1st rider to see what happened??

i watched the whole race on tv. it doesn't appear anyone got her spill on video. the tv footage was the same. just watching the leader. the leader even turns around to see what's up. the announcers didn't make a big deal about the wreck, so it didn't seem like anything happened.

i also saw her at the sea otter wheeling around. the force is strong with that one.

this is all too bad... i remember when i was racing at the Y in orange and she would come out to practice days sometimes on her downhill bike and rip it up! :twisted:
