Amazing to watch! Just goes to show that a little determination and passion goes a long way!

Wow what an inspiration. Nothing not even being paralysed will keep him away from his true passion. We can all learn from that!

I must be honest - the smile on Martyn's face choked me up a bit! That is so frikken AWESOME!!!!

 

I remember watching Martyn when I first started riding 19 odd years ago and trying to do the same tricks on my old Kona...didn't work as well...

hells, makes me think of my mate steve who I used to MTB with years ago. he's a quadriplegic following a fall on his bike probably around 10 years ago now.

 

I wish someday he can get back on a bike.

Lump in my throat stuff!! Watched it last night with my 3 year old. Poor lil' guy got a teary eyed motivational speech of note.

 

Love this. In absolute awe.

I showed it to one of my problem patients this morning (won't get out of bed or do any rehab post amputation) with a simple question: "So - if he can do it - what's your excuse again?"

 

Don't know it it will help him, but it made me feel better - takes big balls to come back so quickly from such a traumatic injury, so big up to Martyn for being such an inspiration.

i think for guys like us, doing what we love, passionately & whole heartedly it's going take a whole lot more to keep us down.
