the disabled thread [for riders with disabilities...] ENTER WITH RESPECT PLEASE

hi well i decided to make this thread to make people more open about disabilities they might have and to educate people that dont have them about it.... well first off no spamming please no rude comments.... trust me as a disabled rider it hurts more than anything... well if you ride and your disabled please tell us your name what your disability is and how it affects you and your riding.
ok well my disability is that i have cerebral palsey and it effects your motor skills meaning how well you can do stuff.. well i have it on my wahole left side it effects me by making it harder to grip things typing... lolz umm it is harder to bend my palm up (though surgery has helped alot and im so thankful for it. anywho it erffects my riding by making it harder to hold on to the bars and doing whips and catches and things with my left foot though i have made the best of it i still love riding with a passion it means everything to me i may not be able to do some tricks as well as others but i just ride for the fun of it =] thank you and once again please no hate comments or teasing..

Edit: ok lets get this straight it doesnt necessarily have to be a physical disability it can be a mental disability or anything such as a problem that effects your life or riding

I have Psoriasis. Its dry red skin with cuts all over it. It affects my riding by a lot, because its on my palms. It bleeds 99% of the time. Hurts like Hell. Also it holds me back from a lot of things I want to do. I dont really not of that would be disabled, but I just thought I'd let you all now.
