I hate the electric bikes 2 stroke for life but to see Doug Henry be able to fly again is so freaking awesome it literally brought a tear to my eye. Imagine how amazing that felt for him and he's hammering them like back in the day so amazing he's the definition of inspiration
Im no electric fan either but for a paralyzed rider it makes perfect sense. That’s the only reason it should be able to compete with ICE bikes. And Doug fucking rips it!!!!!!!
If you would actually try an electric bike you would know just how amazing they truly are. Instant torque, no mess, no smell, almost no maintenance, and you can ride them inside. Electric bikes really are the future.
Sooooooo badass...bet he blew everyones minds that was there to witness him race. I think every person who watches this video is totally blown away. #Legend
This is the perfect bike for paralyzed riders like Doug with no shifting, no clutch, and a left hand rear brake. It's awesome to see him still ripping.
What I see is a track without the free-style jumps...yay! Just how and why the sport turned into a combo of MX racing and free-style I don't know but IMO this is racing. Maybe the World VET MX could race on one day and have the pro's come the next day and watch the fun begin. I'll bet you would have one hell of a race and everyone there would be smiling for the whole race. Congrats Doug Henry!
Doug Henry is one of the toughest men (the other being Bob Sloan) to ever ride. Surviving the infamous stuck throttle crash at Budd's Creek(known as Henry Hill) to becoming paralyzed and not giving up riding...and now in 2024, still out there kicking ass....men like this are extremely few and far between nowadays. Ride on man🤘
as I wrote my comment i forgot all about the other crashes breaking both arms also the poster of his back saying whats keeping you from riding, or whats holding you back so cool a mans man!!
Look at that, just look at that! Plain proof what anybody can do if you just put heart and mind into it, you can do anything. Bravo Doug Henry and thank you. You're a huge inspiration. And thank you MotoHead.
I've commented on this before but I'll say again, outstanding bravery and confidence to back yourself knowing that if you fall in that 1st turn 20-30 riders will be bearing down on you like a ton of bricks and here you are unable to move away from the bike being strapped on scary, but I bet it never enters his mind. Anyone with any sort of disability should watch this,in fact rehab centers around the world should have a copy of this to show you can still do whatever you set your mind to. This word has been used repeatedly but it's perfectly true what an Inspiration.
electric bike, 54, no legs, = wins!! im having big problems in my life and feeling sorry for myself and then I see Doug doing this... I heard he also lost his house to a fire!!! why did this happen to such a great man when their are so many thugs that deserve such things??? I was a local expert in NESC and was in many races with him back in the late 80's early 90's time is evil I miss the good ol days doug you are a true hero to me.
Whomever helped Doug with the bike, getting to England many thanks, hell will Charles knight him SIR HENRY while he's over there . Never seen him complain, ever
It's amazing the things we can do now to enable riders who don't have the use of their legs to ride. Wayne Rainey, Doug Henry, heck, I've seen a few guys at the WERA level road racing. Remember guys, racing is for everyone. Don't let anyone say you can't race, don't say you can't race to anyone.
Wow! With no working legs! Taking those corners without putting out your leg? The second guy is that for safety or clean racing? Wonderful to see. Cheers Doug.
Having experienced first hand his riding ability many times this doesn’t surprise me, what people don’t know is he can win in any Motorsport. You should see him on a snowmobile, Atv, trials, endouro, supermoto bike or him race a GNCC, this still amazes me but not really surprised. Congrats Doug!
What inspired athlete able have the drive and all other that goes along being paraplegic I know all too well. Same outcome different Juno in 2001 still going semi strong being 52 like yourself just in a cage now 😂. Absolutely a feat going over the pond their ground and showing what's up!!
There's a guy with the attitude that never said give up or quit he often rides at my friends track mx-23 in Brookfield mass I've known him since he's started riding Motocross in New England when he was just starting out
Doug henry were do you even begin.This bad ass SX/MX champion is hands down the toughest man to ever through a leg over a dirt bike period!!! He has more heart and drive in life than anyone in the sport.Doug makes scareface/al pacino look like a pussy.You are one tough mo fo brother. P.S.It was great to see one of dougs rivals Jeff Emig by his side pretty sweet.Lots of love my brothers. TRUMP 2024 FUCK AROUND AND FIND OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm completely blown away. Hats off to Mr. Henry. Beyond words.
Doug Henry is hands down one of the greatest riders to ever live!!!!
Everybody loves Doug, Henry. God bless that man.
God why did you paralyze my hero? Watch over him he has something evil to prove, oh and i got a question about Marty Smith. Amen.
Good for you Doug!! Awesome riding,you’re the Man!!
Besides being paralyzed this man is
FIFTY FOUR (54) YEARS OLD !!
Wow what an inspiration. How is that even possible to go that fast. True champion.
Without dabbing a foot. Incredible!
one of the most beautiful things i have seen in a long time back in his AMA days he was class but this is simply another level "absolute legend" 👋👍
This would put such a big smile on my dad’s face who passed a couple years ago. That dude was such a Doug fan

@@billygildark4565 I agree

totally agree
@AcidGambit419 the smell the mess and the maintenance are the reason I ride a 2 stroke there's no better sound or smell than a crisp 2 stroke
One word. Inspirational.
Sooooooo badass...bet he blew everyones minds that was there to witness him race. I think every person who watches this video is totally blown away. #Legend
Wow, I've always been impressed by Doug...even more so now!
This guy just keeps creating more legends. This is campfire tale worthy shit right here.
Inspires all of us to never give up and do what makes you happy. God bless all.🙏

Dedication & Heart - aka Doug Henry the baddest man on the planet...
Met him at a Supermoto race in 2006. Incredibly nice guy. He was so low in the turns sparks were flying off his footpegs and of course he won.
amazing just think of the balance he has
Wowwww....the Greatest Motocross Ambassador just raised the "Never Give Up" motto to another level. God Bless🙏🇱🇷🙏 and Congratulations.
Love this guy, an absolute beast and a real GOAT!!!

Unbelievable heart skill and determination…… plus zero fear !
He is The Man and The GOAT all rolled into one. Sure they won more races but neither won a race without legs.
What!! No stopping the man😂
RAD!! I've always been a Doug Henry fan.
God Bless Stark Varg for making a bike he can race on again!!
Congratulations Doug, Fro, and all the competitors
Incredible 👏
Good to see him out there!
The MX King 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
thats definitely one of the coolest things ever
Doug is a Legend
No leg down in the corners, no standing to absorb bumps, no shifting weight to the pegs! WTF! DOUG IS A BEAST!
Guy is still incredibly fast amazing
What a Hero!!!-true Grit!!👍👍👍👍👍
Doug you’re adding to your legend 💪
Legend !
What a thrill that must be for him!
It's amazing the things we can do now to enable riders who don't have the use of their legs to ride. Wayne Rainey, Doug Henry, heck, I've seen a few guys at the WERA level road racing.
Remember guys, racing is for everyone. Don't let anyone say you can't race, don't say you can't race to anyone.
Doug’s got the speed ..amazing
Did Doug Henry just save the EV industry, WHOA.
Wow! With no working legs! Taking those corners without putting out your leg? The second guy is that for safety or clean racing? Wonderful to see. Cheers Doug.
He was amazing, really pleased I got to see him race , the last time was the 1998 mxdn foxhill 😊
His form is on point. Never takes his feet off the pegs!
Having experienced first hand his riding ability many times this doesn’t surprise me, what people don’t know is he can win in any Motorsport. You should see him on a snowmobile, Atv, trials, endouro, supermoto bike or him race a GNCC, this still amazes me but not really surprised. Congrats Doug!
Doesn't need background muzak.
Beyond cool.
Doug is a true legend!!!!
It blows me away that in "bench racing" conversations of the toughest riders, it's rare that Henry is mentioned. To me, there's no tougher.
its because they are N.E. guys I think
UTTERLY AMAZING! WOW!!!
Thats just killer. Great job
You gotta rev that sucker! Thank you very much!
Bravo champion ❤
Human being has no limit !!! 👏👏👏👏😀
👍😎🇫🇷🏁
Fantastic
I've been a fan since I was a kid an never knew he got hurt crazy
Sweet, never give up
Love it
Frickin awesome!!
I'm sorry ... But what a MOFO !!! He was an awesome motocross and supermoto rider.
Now that Stark suits him well 👊✊✊✊
Hero

In a few years, add compressed spine and vertebral disk issues to his health issues.
First the 4-stroke and now this!! 😡🤣
Someone graps my facebook channel,i lost the contact to him. A person like an Angel.
🤯
I guess, one day in the farther future, some of us will be riding electric ⚡💡 dirt bikes. Oh well, at least they can race.
I hope he doesn't get hurt 🤕
See? You really don't have to stand up on your bike
