About Wanda Roche:
After having ridden to the top of Cottonwood Pass, a 12,100 foot pass in the heart of the Colorado Rockies, on Day 5 of the Bicycle Tour of Colorado, Wanda was at the top of the world. After celebrating with photos, she and her friends began the exhilerating descent. After just 3 minutes of riding, another cyclist lost control and crashed into Wanda, catapulting her off the side of the road into a ravine below. It soon became apparent to rescuers that Wanda had suffered a serious back injury, resulting in paralysis from mid chest down, along with a fractured right arm. Wanda was airlifted to St. Anthony’s Hospital in Lakewood, CO where doctors performed surgery on her back and arm. Wanda will face extensive and costly rehab over the next years to regain her ability to lead an independent life. despite her serious injuries, Wanda remains courageous and positive!
