Press Release Summary: Disaboom-sponsored Alejandro Albor, world champion
handcyclist and double-leg amputee, secured his place on the United States
Paralympic Hand Cycling team when, despite a shoulder injury, Albor clinched a first
place victory at the Beijing Paralympics Selection Event.

Press Release Body: June 17, 2008 - Denver, CO - Disaboom-sponsored Alejandro Albor,
world champion handcyclist and double-leg amputee, secured his place on the United
States Paralympic Hand Cycling team when, despite a shoulder injury, Albor clinched
a first place victory at the Beijing Paralympics Selection Event in Denver on June
6. With this win, Albor joins a group of 11 cyclists who will represent the United
States in the 2008 Paralympic Games in Beijing, China September 6 through 17.

Albor's recent injury occurred while training for the Paralympic Selection Event.
He was struck by a van that ran a four-way stop intersection, which dislocated his
clavicle and destroyed his racing handcycle. Although he was under medical care and
had to race with his three-pounds-heavier training bike, Albor fought through and
triumphed over the competition.

Albor is no stranger to the Paralympic Games. In 2004, he made his debut in Athens,
Greece, when handcycling was first introduced as an official Paralympic sport.
Albor took home the silver, despite a last-minute rule that did not allow him to use
his own racing bike. In that race he had to use the same training bike he used at
the Beijing Paralympics Selection Event.

"I want to set an example and let others know that no matter where you come from, or
what you have gone through, if you have the determination, you can make your dreams
come true," said Albor. "But you have to be willing to work at it. Everyone wants
to win, but few are willing to put in the effort that winning requires. When you are
willing, winning is within reach.\"

Denver-based Disaboom (OTCBB: DSBO; www.disaboom.com), the largest online community
for people touched by disability, has sponsored Albor throughout his quest to
compete at the 2008 Paralympic Games in Beijing, China. In addition, Disaboom is
helping to finance a documentary film of Alejandro's life by filmmaker Steven Barber
of Vanilla Fire Productions (http://www.vanillafire.com/vanilla.html).

"We are honored to sponsor Alejandro as he continues on this amazing journey," said
Dr. Glen House, co-founder of Disaboom. "Anyone touched by a disability understands
the challenges and struggles involved in pursuing such a goal, and Alejandro is
setting an incredible example of determination. We are thrilled Albor has secured
his position on the 2008 U.S. Paralympic Team and are very excited about his
chances of bringing home the gold."

Disaboom was established in 2007 to create the first comprehensive, evolving source
of information, insight, and personal engagement for people touched by disability.
For Albor, disaboom.com is a long-awaited resource. "Until Disaboom was established,
I had yet to find a place where I could go for information, talk with others in
similar situations, share ideas, and gain a sense of community. I am thankful for
Disaboom's vision and their belief in me as an athlete and a person."

Visitors to disaboom.com can track Alejandro's quest for the gold by reading his
personal blogs and viewing his pictures and videos. They can also root for Albor by
