Alan Kempster is defined by irony middle man, but it is a giant. You and I, instead of spending money on crap we should give him a hand and in addition to '# IceBucketChallenge you should also talk to him, rather than their.
Alan Kempster probably is a name that does not tell you anything yet. If so, Forgive the presumption, but I am convinced that it will not be after reading this post and saw this video. Alan is not a famous guy because he goes to the Billionaire but has already become a symbol: twenty-three years ago, a drunk driver hit him while traveling by motorcycle, forcing them to give up forever the right arm and leg. Allora Alan Kempster Aveva 28 years and was a motorcycle racer, did what he wanted to do, pursuing his dream.
Since then, his dream has changed, but only because it has become the largest: has not ceased to be a pilot and many have told his story of passion and sacrifice, with a smile on his self-deprecating humor that led him to call his fan club “Left Side Story” and to put 1/2 as the number of race.
These days the name of Alan Kempster returned to peep on some of our press articles marginal because last weekend was the guest of honor at Di.Di World Cup, the first international competition dedicated to riders with disabilities and organized by Unlike Disabled Onlus at Mugello.
See it in the pictures and in the Articles of beautiful event gave me a feeling of strength and confidence, I was very pleased. But there is one thing you need to know and that pisses me off bad with all, also with myself. Come sai bene, motorcycle riding and racing has considerable costs and difficulties, including economic, can grow to a special rider as Alan. So the Australian launched a crowdfunding campaign on IndieGoGo to be able to compete, but did not reach its target, gleaning only 11% of what is necessary.
Now that pisses off.
We spend money in a lot of crap and we did not realize we could help Alan to continue to live his dream.
Instead of giving us ice buckets to appear in video (remember that the '# IceBucketChallenge is a good initiative, but it is a penance for those who do not gives the research against ALS, it was a banal tormentone) We should act more effectively and; is great help research, but sometimes we should think also to help the life, on issues that may not seem so high and a little’ trivial. At least I think so.
As well, I wonder if there are companies that have the balls to break the mold and choose as the face a man with such force.
Alan offers us a second chance and started another CAMPAIGN, SOSTENIAMOLO!
Men like Alan Kempster must be for us motorcyclists (and not only) Samples will, passion, dedication, and we should treat them as heroes.
On his Facebook page, there are contacts of his Foundation, but they are also in the picture below.
In the meantime, I invite you also to discover the activity of Di.Di. Onlus on the site http://www.diversamentedisabili.it/ They are great and deserve all our admiration.
