Dr. Colvin was determined to host a para-cycling event, driven by a promise to honor her former student, Warren Strickland. With Texas A&M's support, she transformed a modest idea into a grand, impactful event that highlighted the university’s unwavering commitment to service.
This powerful story showcases how Dr. Colvin’s vision, combined with community support, led to the successful hosting of the 2024 Summer U.S. Paralympics Cycling Event. This was the final competition for para-cyclists to qualify for the European leg of the 2024 UCI Para-Cycling World Cup season and secure their spot at the Paralympic Games Paris 2024.
