In June of 2010, a mountain-biking accident left David Wieselmann with a broken neck and a spinal cord injury at the C7 vertebra, leaving him paralyzed from the chest down. Before this life-altering accident David was often seen biking 40 to 70 miles in a day around the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, until the snow fell—then it was all about skiing.

His goals include; locking knees out by October 2020, regain more trunk control, Move hips, and eventually walk again.
