There have been one-handed bike racers who have competed very well. Ray Florman was born with only one hand and was Missouri state champion in 1936 and again in 1937. He was national champion in the 80-plus age group in 1998 at age 81. He owned the sister shop to the one I worked in from 1973 to 1976.

I've also known a rider with a withered leg. Even one-legged people can ride bikes, though the guy I knew would never win any speed contests.
