Hello, my name is James and I'm the proud owner of life-altering spinal damage.
Unfortunately, there's not many options available in order to repair the damage because I'm uninsured and am something of an on-job liability due to the injury, so I've not worked in ages.
Over the last two and a half years, I've put on a considerable amount of weight because of inactivity. I've been told by multiple doctors that I could paralyze myself if I don't get it fixed "immediately", and that exercising isn't a good idea.
To which I reply -- "Stuff that." I've spent the last two and a half years in a state of perpetual physical decay, and I refuse to stay that way anymore. I'm so fed up with being inactive that I've decided to push myself as far as I can. What will be will be, and if it ends in paralysis, so be it.
This channel is designed to chronicle my journey for the benefit of myself, my friends and my family. At the moment it'll just be me and the bike. Let's see how far we go.
