Martyn Ashton Im not one to get all gushy, so Ill just say you can still rip. Just watched the vid about your bike, and you riding, very nice man. Im going to show your riding video to my cousin as he is in a chair and I think would like to try something out like what you have built.
I nearly shed a tear or two watching that! There cant be a bad word said about martyn! Legend, guru, hero whatever...you have made history right here! Congratulations!!! Did I hear right hawzie did the rolling road?
I am here late... really late. Thank you for the inspiration and thank you for being a good and genuine person. People like you and the riders in this video is why we all push onward.
This is an old video now, but as someone who has broken their neck and was incredibly fortunate enough to not be paralysed, Martyn is huge inspiration. Astounding skill, astounding enthusiasm and passion for cycling, and an astounding positivity despite such a life-altering injury. Hoping the past 6 years have brought some great opportunities!
Same. I knew that the guy that did road bike party had been paralyzed but did not realise it was martyn. As someone who broke my back in 2009(fortunately not paralysed) he is a huge inspiration to get back on my bike.
I still keep coming back to watch this. Youre an incredible person @martynashton, and inspire me to squeeze as much out of life as you do. I'll always be watching this space! Cheers ya ledge!
a true inspiration for anyone facing adversity of any kind. you were an inspiration to me in my teens with my riding and now even more so. keep up the good work and good luck.
Just watched this video and I'm stunned by how humble Martyn Ashton is considering his situation and his obvious love for his sport. I take my hat of to you sir, you are a true inspiration.
Road bike party is the best youtube series ever produced. The story behind it is incredible. Truly incredible. If you just stop and think it’s amazing.
Martyn, you're a genious, an amazing person! Remember my face when I saw what you DO WITH YOUR BIKE!!!?! I was so dammit shocked and said that time ''girl, here we go!''. You inspired so many people including me, doing all those crazy things again and again. I'm so sorry, so dammit sorry this crash has happened in your life. But it won't ever break you down, I know, we all know. You still doing all those crazy things on two wheels! We are so proud of you, you even can't imagine. I still don't know how is that possible to jump everywhere like you, but haha maybe with years of practice will show up? :) Thank you so much for everything. We won't let you down!
Shite.....I must have been living on the moon not to have heard of your crash...Only this weekend I was showing my grandson (6) your videos as he's just learned to ride...Now he wants a stunt bike...I am so shocked but glad that you can still inspire people with your skills. Hope that Wings for Life can research and find a cure for you and all the other people who are wheelchair users. Whatever happens in the future....Your still the man.
I am very glad that you don't seem to be letting your injury get you down. Keep your head up, you are such an awesome guy and an inspiration to a lot of people.
What an incredible attitude, and wow what crazy riding! Anyone that hasn't seen Road Bike Parry one and two stop what your doing and watch, then watch these three amazing guys talk about it all. Hope that find that cure for you.
I saw this after having seen RBP2 a couple times. This video should have the same count on the views and THUMBS UP as the road bike party 2 video itself. It (the content of the video) and Martyn (and the other guys) all are what has been said by those who commented positively ... inspirational, hero, etc. For sports, medical care and research. Fantastic job.
Hi Martyn, I Had a crash on 2015 resulting on seven broken bones on my spine, just one milimeter away from marrow split at T6... three months with an orthopedic device but no damage at all thanks to god. Once I meet your story realized how lucky I am and how important is inner strenght. Thanks for what you've teach us
Martyn was the biggest insperation in my life for biking since the age of 14....I am now 32 with kids now and see the way the sport has grown and saw how Martyn moved with it becomming in my eyes the best rider in the trials world :) I am gutted and broken hearted that he has now a chair but its not that bad as he is still alive, My biggest momet was when i got to have my photo taken at MBUK event at blackpool pier a little over 15 years ago watching him and another rider called ian but cant thik of his second name though ...... on there trailor rigs and also riding on the back of the pier with local youths, i was amazed :) :) :) you were on your blue cannondale with fatty r fork :) he shook my hands and said to keep at it as one day youll look back and think of how you over came the struggle to learn the stuff you want to............. So in return Martyn i wish you the best of look and one day in the near future you yourself will look back on the chair and be glad you went through the struggle to get out of it :) Even to this day im still watching your dvd's for tricks and street riding :) so hugs and handshakes sent your way buddy :)
Did'nt think you could make a better film than road bike party 2, But i have just watched it. I hope you get to where you want to be. Huge respect dude.
You are an inspiration to all sports men, not just cyclists. The real British get up and finish attitude that make you one of the best sports persons of all time. Hope you make more videos and god be with you. Thanks.
I can't believe this. I started watching the videos a couple of weeks ago and had no idea of this ..what a brave and great guy ..a wonderful outlook he has .God bless.
All total Legends! I remember seeing the future shape of tricks / trials when Martyn arrived on the scene years back. Nice to see equally nice people in Chris and Danny with their support of this ground-braking project.
Medical science is moving fast on spinal injury so i can see this guy back walking one day. There was an Australian guy who went from a wheelchair to walking recently, doctors said it would never happen.
Stick with it Martyn. Stick with it. It will come and we will all cheer like we did watching your films, only it will be more special. Thank you for sharing this, and it was the first time I knew of your accident. Keep up the manuals...
I felt huge emotion when I saw RB1 and RB2 and this video too, (I went and built a trials bike and I've transferred a few tricks to my road bike). I love the work you've done, it makes me want to get on my bike immediately and be a better rider. I can only imagine how you feel when times get dark, but whether you're in a chair or on a bike you're an inspiration to us all, please keep on doing what you do.
I was blown away by your video Wicked Tricks and Cunning Stunts all those years ago and have been amazed with all the crazy stuff you could do. All the best Martyn
Martyn, you´re such a great inspiration! RBP videos are absoulutely amazing. I´ve always been looking up to you, will never forget meeting you for the first time and competing in master class at world champs with you, hawzee, chris and other great riders. Stay strong and thanks for so much motivation! ;)
You guys seem like a really pleasant bunch. I wish you all the best. The positivity is overwhelming. Good luck Martyn. You really brightened up my day. From Malaysia...
Martyn Ashton was the person that got me into trails riding, I can still remember watching the video of tricks and stunts back in the 90's with my jaw on the floor watching him do what he did best then me and my friends would pause the video, go outside and try and do what we had just seen. Granted we practiced off curbs but we'd get there in the end and its all down to you and Martin Hawyes. Your my trials hero.
Martyn has a very soothing voice. I am glad he still has his curiosity and passion for pushing the boundaries of what is possible on bikes. It's his versatility and ideas that shine through in his work and even with the new parameters he has to work with, he's still going to be a pioneer!
Really inspiring documentary, you can appreciate the humble nature of the 3 riders and that desire to break new ground. Really sorry to hear about Martyns accident but well done guys!
This is by far a STRONG video and a STRONG man talking about friendship, rivalry and a lot of fun... Thank you so much and I wish you the best for going on either on wheels or feet and wheels... Thank you ...
I never knew about this video till now. It’s heartbreaking to know what really happened behind the scenes on Road Bike Party 2 but with Martyns positive attitude it makes you realize how much of a humble guy he really is.
Just got to this now... you're a freakin' legend mate. Love your GMBN stuff and good to hear more about your story. Even more respect now than I had before.
Martyn Ashton. I have to say you are inspiring to anyone who loses motion in their Legs. To have such a humble outlook or your situation and be able to Look back and not Regret anything! You are truely an amazing Soul. I haop you find Feeling In your legs again!! Much Luck! Cheers!
Incredible. A huge inspiration that he has just got up and carried on with life, despite having a lot taken away. Great video and a great bunch of guys. Well done!
Massive respect to you Martyn. Have been in awe of your ridding since the mid 90's and your VHS vids are the only ones I ever bothered to keep. If they can get Dan Atherton back on a bike when they said he wouldn't walk again then I'm sure you'll get there too.
I cant believe this story. I live in Bournemouth where alot of the last video and bits of this video were filmed. I use to come Watch you at sandbanks with the mbuk show like 10years ago. You are a true legend, keep up the positive attitude u will be back to wow us in no time.
awesome video!!! Martyn you are a legend. Your early films were the reason I got on a mountain bike. Loved road bike party and you couldn't have picked better guys to finish it. I'm so shocked by the accident. Keep the pedals spinning Martyn.
The Making of Road Bike Party was a great insight into a great film. The Making of Road Bike Party 2 is a very different film; sad, funny and very moving. Martyn Ashton is an inspiration, really look forward to his next project.
Man! Why did this happened to this amazing piece of rider?! And he even dare to laugh! My total respects to you Martin. I, somehow, know that you would be riding again and having fun doing this spectacular sport. *cleans up tears*
I always think what makes people dislike the video, especailly one like this, about crashed dreams, and amazing attitute showed by Martin, on how to chase the dreams even if you don't get to seat in the riders seat. Great collaboration, and great story behind one of the best bike videos there.
Martyn just seems like such a genuinely lovely guy. Great bike rider - he will always be remembered as one of the trials greats. His accident is hugely unfortunate but with such a positive outlook and great personality I'm sure he'll go on to have a great deal of success at whatever he chooses to do from here on out :)
Martyn you have made bikes do what most of us can only dream of, you and your videos are things to be amazed by. Here's hoping you do lots more amazing things on bikes and find lots more things to make you smile :)
Martyn Ashton you are truly an inspiration and a strong souled person. I wish you all the good fortune in the future and hope that stay strong. Oh and also i can't wait to see what you do next :) Great inspiring and gutting video that made me tear up and laugh.
Wow, epic video! Unbelievable how Martin reacts to all this after his crash. Respect! One of the best videos I've ever seen, like most of GCN's videos :D
Absolutely great video, wish it had some more publicity. Shows the dedication of all the guys and how good the atmosphere is in cycling. With Martyn all the best and hope to see something new soon
Martyn Ashton is a huge inspiration, to have your livelihood taken away with a complete T10 spinal injury but is still able to have a wonderful positive mental attitude. It's amazing.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I really appreciate it.
Martyn Ashton are you lost your leg?get hurt?
Martyn Ashton Im not one to get all gushy, so Ill just say you can still rip. Just watched the vid about your bike, and you riding, very nice man. Im going to show your riding video to my cousin as he is in a chair and I think would like to try something out like what you have built.

Hello , how's the back going . Thanks for making trials what it is.
+Martyn Ashton Bike, feet, wheelchair - it doesn't matter, you'll always be a legend and an idol! Thanks man and all the best!
These guys are three of the most inspirational riders, it's great to see the story behind the video.
Skills With Phil so are you bro!
Martyn seems like the nicest guy ever. An inspiration on and off the bike.
We can confirm this as fact.
Can double confirm it. Spoke to him at the World Cup this year in Fort William while he was filming for the week, nice guy and proper inspiration.
I nearly shed a tear or two watching that!
There cant be a bad word said about martyn!
Legend, guru, hero whatever...you have made history right here!
Congratulations!!!
Did I hear right hawzie did the rolling road?
Yep, that was Hawzie on the rollers - a special cameo from 'the other' Martin.
Awesome. Prob the only riding footage we'll ever get nowadays!
Aaron Tottman Ha! He cut quite a dash on them though didn't he ;-)
Oh yes. Definitely!
Aaron Tottman Hearing him talk about training to do wheelies on the wheelchair did it for me. What an amazing attitude!
I am here late... really late. Thank you for the inspiration and thank you for being a good and genuine person. People like you and the riders in this video is why we all push onward.
This is an old video now, but as someone who has broken their neck and was incredibly fortunate enough to not be paralysed, Martyn is huge inspiration. Astounding skill, astounding enthusiasm and passion for cycling, and an astounding positivity despite such a life-altering injury. Hoping the past 6 years have brought some great opportunities!
Martyn has such a positive outlook on life.
The "Party" got me back on my bike.... Thank You for everything Martyn.
This is so sad! I actuallt didn't know that martyn was paralysed before i watched this, and i have been watching gmbn for half a year!
Same. I knew that the guy that did road bike party had been paralyzed but did not realise it was martyn. As someone who broke my back in 2009(fortunately not paralysed) he is a huge inspiration to get back on my bike.
Bjorni 03 haha same here. This guy is awesome, can't respect him enough.
This is really touching, and absolutely amazing. The friendship of these 3 really comes through, you can feel it.
Blake! 18:32 :)
It's great fun to watch this a few years later with some extra knowledge and perspective.
I shed a tear, I ain't gunn lie..
Yr awesome man!
Such an inspirational man, I'd love to see what he goes on to do in the future
Never forgotten what a legend on a bike you were . The memories ride on!

Saludos desde Colombia
Thank you Martyn for your bravery and passion on, and off, the bike. You are a wonderful ambassador for the sport.
Just watched this video and I'm stunned by how humble Martyn Ashton is considering his situation and his obvious love for his sport. I take my hat of to you sir, you are a true inspiration.

So cool that he found a way to ride again

my three favourite trials riders in one video!
Wow, epic video! Unbelievable how Martin reacts to all this after his crash. Respect! One of the best videos I've ever seen, like most of GCN's videos :D
I am suprised a road bike can be operated in that way and admire all the players' effort. Thanks.
What a legend, truly amazing geezer!
A true inspiration. What a guy!!
Absolutely great video, wish it had some more publicity. Shows the dedication of all the guys and how good the atmosphere is in cycling. With Martyn all the best and hope to see something new soon
Yeah
What an awesome dude. Surrounded by some more awesome dudes.
Inspirational stuff; internal and external. Power to you all.
Martyn Ashton is a huge inspiration, to have your livelihood taken away with a complete T10 spinal injury but is still able to have a wonderful positive mental attitude. It's amazing.
Awesome. Going back to just having fun on a bike with your mates, but as an adult. Wicked stuff.
I nearly cried when I seen him in a wheelchair :(
Keen to see a vid of you gettin' amongst it on the wheelchair! Well done on the perseverance in making this video happening. Absolutely incredible.
