Inspiring Determination
Photograph of Scott Cutshall from the Star Tribune
There is an amazing story in the Star Tribune. It is about a man named Scott Cutshall who decided to save his life by riding a bicycle and maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle. I have never met Scott, but I suspect I have seen him around at local bike jaunts like CRC Coffee. Dang, it makes me want to ride.
UPDATE: Check out his narrated photographic slide show.
