I would never have expected to be moved to tears by an MTB-Video...

[pctimber]

I was racing pro downhill for titus cycles and at the shape of my life, got rear ended in a car wreck, and developed a neuromuscular disease called paraperisic spasticity. it got really bad to the point I couldn't ride anymore.  I couldn't live without riding, and over the course of several years, starting back on a trainer and going from there, im back on the trail.  I can hardly walk and have a hard time keeping my balance. but when im on the bike, absolutely nothing is wrong with me.  I burst into tears when I saw the look on martyns face .   I don't have words to describe, other than amazing.  what a stellar group of guys.  Martyn, believe me, the best rides of your life have yet to come.  cheers and

I respect this dude for not letting his disability stop him from doing things he loves

His smile was the realest thing I've seen on the Internet in a long time.

Incredible, inspiring, awesome... If you haven't seen it yet, you need to check out Martyn Ashton's Back On Track. And, if you've already seen, you should probably watch it again...

You can tell how much they love their mate... Pushing him along the way and helping him.

The awkward moment when Martyn Ashton throws better tricks in the air then you, even paralysed from the waist down!

To the 65+ people who disliked this video: You have NO heart or soul and will never appreciate your privileges that you take for granted. I can't even find word to describe that people that disliked this touching and emotional video.

6 years on still brings tears! What an moment, life long memories!

[aguadoia]

When I need to face a difficult moment, I come to this video and just forget about trivial things and enjoy the happiness and satisfaction of overcoming the real barriers life can put in front. Then, I look back at my situation and all looks so easy and simple...sometimes is about the pure joy of moving forward against all odds.

[LewisNiven]

For god's sake is someone chopping onions in here?

[MCGameProductions]

how could any body dislike this was one of the most inspiring videos I've seen on youtube

[DoddyMTBtech]

I'm still blubbing after the third view. This is the best thing I've seen online this year by far. Martyn has always been an inspiration to me - and he's more of an inspiration now than ever. Really look forward to riding with you at some point soon Martyn!

[BetJumper]

if that was me I would have to stop and cry half way down. this video makes me so sad but happy that he's back on a bike :) I didn't realize it was the same amazing martyn ashton that did the cool roadie trials video.

[RicJG]

This is emotional, we can only imagine how he feels. Great vid

[tenzoorbeta]

it was endearing to watch this. No agenda, no politics, no marketing, no propaganda, no influencers, no fakery. It was joy, passion, humanity, friendship and love. Martyn, we all love you mate. x
