Brilliant video and Martyn is such a top bloke.
Makes everyday first world problems pail into insignificance when you see how he has dealt with something as serious as he has with such positivity.
Danny Mc, slugger and the lads are top mates as well ๐
That's the HAPPIEST AND SADDEST video I've ever seen ! I used to see Martyn at nearly all the bike shows and I'm sure I've got some footage tucked away still.
Truly inspirational - makes you think about the times you haven't gone riding because it's "too windy, a bit cold, too hot !!"
Thankyou Martyn
I saw him ride live a couple of times before his accident, I always thought he was amazingly skilled and agile for a guy who was obviously a bit older than those he was performing with.
I saw him at the London bike show this year, and felt a bit sad seeing him in his chair, however I read an interview with him a few months back where he said he was determined to get back on a bike, and I totally believed him.
His determination/positivity is very inspiring, and he come across as a proper nice guy.
Sod this dust, I properly blubbed all the way through whilst laughing too.
I'm so chuffed for him.

Absolutely brilliant, rails those berms a million times better than I will ever be able to!! Chuffed doesn't even come close.
Fantastic! What a top bloke and a legend. Very dusty and lumpy in rodent towers too ๐
If you watch that video before you go out for a ride you are GUARANTEED to have a great one!
We get all distracted by equipment and speed and comfort and efficiency and progression, when all you need to realise is that just riding any bike anywhere at any speed can be so much fun.
He probably still rides a bike better than I do, I think I might hate him, or have grudging respect for someone who is talented and happy, which is pretty much the same thing.
Mojo nicolai seems to work though.
Pretty funny to get half way through the video before you realise who his mates are. Great video.
now this guy needs an ebike- with quick deploy stabilisers - brilliant vid and does look like fun was had
just watched this video. Amazing! makes you really appreciate how awesome mountain biking is watching the sheer happiness on Martyn's face.
I love it. Felt quite emotional watching it.
