It's such a precious moment when you come to realize that even physically disabled people have the motivation to fight until the finish line and have the power to smile at the end of a 4-day-long competition. It happened at the UCI Paracycling Tour of Upper-Austria as 80 Athletes came together to compete in all the paracycling categories. They were racing for the essential qualification points which could bring them to the Paralympics next year, so it is no wonder that there were many world, European and paralympic champions competing in the region of Salzkammergut in Austria. Congrats to all the finishers, I wish them all the best for the upcoming races!

Brilliant sunshine, fabulous landscape and motivated athletes all around! I just discovered the magnificent region of Salzkammergut in Austria! Had a great journey and feel honored to present the Para-cycling European Cup this weekend. I show all my respect to those handbikers who will fight for the gold medal and try to collect some qualification points for the 2016 Rio Paralympics. It will be an unforgettable experience both for me and the riders!
