Colombia's finest

One of the scenes I was really looking forward to shooting was in Bogotá's velodrome with a kid named Edwin. Seeing is believing and inspirational. Edwin lost his left hand when an old land mine he had seen on the ground exploded. Although he has some unique challenges now, Edwin is poised to make the 2012 Paralympic games in London racing on the velodrome. I was able to get a smile out of Edwin when I gave him one of my Trek team jerseys, but his gift of inspiration in return pretty much made my gift to him pale in comparison.
