I've always been fascinated with trials riders, like a whole nother breed of biking. This guy Matt Gillman lost his eyesight in an injury back in 2004. With my working in the eye business, this kid blows my mind knowing that he can do this while not being able to see. Crazy! Matt, you're my new hero for still doing what you love to do, even with a disability. Never give up!

Wow, on a related note, Bobby McMullen is a near blind downhill mt biker who lost most of his eyesight due to Diabetes. We see it all the time in the office, Diabetes mellitus can just kill your vision if blood sugars are out of control for too long. Check out the dvd by Poison Oak Productions called The Way Bobby Sees It.
