During this last year we were riding at http://www.highlandparkresort.com/ and met an amazing one armed rider. Brett Cole lost his right arm in a street bike accident and then took up dirt riding. When we saw him he had a WR 250 with a modified push pull throttle on the left, his front brake lever mounted on the left so that his thumb can activate it by pushing it forward, clutch lever in standard position but with auto clutch, and a steering stabilizer. He was doing wheelies and small jumps, and trail riding better than most. Keep in mind that he started riding off road after the accident.

Info about him is at http://brettcole.blogspot.com/2008/03/dirt-biking-at-highland-park-in-georgia.html.

He is well spoken, and would make a great feature for a Dirt Rider article.
