They are seeking a chance to compete at the 2012 Paralympic Games in London. The games are to open in August after the end of the London Olympics.
Christopher Cruise tells us about the hopeful paracyclists in Los Angeles.
Many of the riders are missing arms or legs. Others are blind, and ride with able-bodied cyclists.
American cyclist Jennifer Schuble rides alone. She suffered a traumatic brain injury as a student at the United States Military Academy at West Point. She lost some of the feeling in her feet. Her arm was later damaged in a car accident and she has multiple sclerosis. But, she says cycling has let her return to competitive sports.
Jennifer Schuble won the gold medal in the 500-meter event at the Beijing Paralympic Games in 2008.
Craig Griffin is training director for the United States paracycling team. He says most of the riders have moved beyond their disabilities, dealing with daily life just like everyone else.
"I mean they cope every day with everything that we do on a day-to-day basis and they do very well at it. So they've learned to adapt to you know opening a bag of potato chips,to you know hopping into a car, dealing with ill-fitting prosthetics."来自世界各地的残疾人自行车选手在加利福尼亚州的洛杉矶展开角逐，寻求参加2012年伦敦残奥会的机会。残奥会将在8月在伦敦奥运会结束后开幕。
克里斯托弗·克鲁斯给我们讲述了身处洛杉矶心中满怀希望的残疾人自行车手们。
很多选手没有胳膊或腿。其他一些选手眼睛失明，他们和四肢健全的自行车选手一起比赛。
来自美国的自行车选手珍妮弗·舒布独自参赛。她在美国西点军校就读期间患了脑外伤。脚局部失去知觉。她的胳膊在随后的一场车祸中受损，并且患有多重硬化症。但是她说，骑自行车使她重返竞技性运动舞台。
珍妮弗·舒布在2008年北京残奥会上获得了自行车500米比赛的金牌。
克雷格·格里芬是美国残疾人自行车队的总教练。他说，大多数车手已经超越了他们身体的缺陷，在日常生活中表现得和常人一样。
“我的意思是，他们每天都同样在做我们日常所做的所有事情，而且做得很好。 所以，他们已经学会打开一包薯片、乘车、使用义肢。”
