Dan Zimmerman
Spokes Fighting Strokes

• Dan Zimmerman had HHT (Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia), a disease in which the lungs fail to filter clots efficiently.
• Dan had the first of periodic surgeries to treat his HHT and graduated from Sussex Hamilton High School in 1982.
• His woodworking equipment to start his own cabinet and furniture-making business in 1985 in Fountain Hills AZ. 
• In 2005, at age 41, Dan suffered a stroke that paralyzed his right arm and leg and damaged the left side of his brain. He decided to shut down his woodworking business and concentrate on recovery.
• Dan first tricycles were too heavy but offered him the "freedom, plain and simple". He bought a lightweight recumbent trike in 2009 and began riding with the "Bent Riders of Arizona" on weekly rides and weekend tours. 
• Cycling, Dan says, has improved his health and more importantly, given him a purpose in life and he wants to raise awareness of HHT. He also wants to raise awareness of stroke prevention and inspire other stroke survivors to fight back against the disease.
