Riding With Doug Henry
Wednesday, September 9, 2009 at 8:34AM
Over this past weekend I had the chance to go up to the Henry Farm and go riding with Doug on his new hand controlled motocross bike. The bike has thumb shifters, rekluse clutch, and rear brake where the clutch lever once was. The bike itself is enclosed by a very custom roll cage to help protect Doug. For anyone that is not familiar with who Doug Henry is he is a past Motocross Champion and due to an injury is paralyzed from the waist down.
To say only after a few weeks of riding that Doug is fast would be an understatement. He is flying on this thing and once he has it fully dialed in the way he wants it, it is going to get to be harder and harder for someone to keep up with him that isn't an A class rider.
Here are some pictures from the day and there will be more in the near future of riding with Doug that will be added.
