    Two men are in a parking lot examining a hand-powered recumbent tricycle (handcycle). The man on the left is seated in the handcycle and wearing a U.S. Army cap and gray hoodie, while the man on the right is crouching down in a navy jacket and jeans, both focused on the bike's mechanics. The setting appears to be a commercial parking lot on an overcast day.

    Corey Cooper, an area sales representative for Invacare, an Elyria, Ohio, based corporation that manufactures and distributes medical products for home and long-term care, helps Army veteran Erin Schaefer make some adjustments to his recumbent-style hand cycle, April 4, at the Warrior Transition Battalion on Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash., during a cycling clinic hosted by the Wounded Warrior Project, April 4 and 5. Schaefer came into hand-cycling one year ago while in rehabilitation at Balboa Naval Hospital in San Diego, after losing both his legs in a 2010 roadside bomb attack in Afghanistan.
