Finally, the return of the Off-Road Handcycling Championships to Crested Butte, CO where One Off handcycles will tackle dirt, mud, rocks and logs in a hill climb, trials, and cross country events. Defending champion Seth Arseneau is back, but also on hand this year is Greg Hockensmith, fresh off of his successful climb up Mt. Fuji. Hockensmith will challenge Arseneau as well as other favorites, Steve Ackerman and Drew Wills who performed well in 2006.
