The Time Ryan Dungey Came Out Of Retirement

This is a Motocross Highlights video of Ryan Dungey's return to racing at the 2022 Pro Motocross Championship! We heard rumors over the years that Ryan Dungey was looking to come out of retirement, but nothing came to fruition. A month before the start of the 2022 Outdoor Motocross season a bomb got dropped in the Motocross community as this great past Supercross and Motocross champion was going to give it another go. Many thought Dungey wouldn't be competitive but he had some incredible moments battling with Eli Tomac, Chase Sexton, Jason Anderson, Ken Roczen, Christian Craig, and all the rest. Dungey showed he hadn't lost a step and could still be in the mix. How would you rate Dungey's Comeback? Comment Below. This is The Time Ryan Dungey Came Out Of Retirement. #ryandungey #motocross #supercross

Was Dungey Comeback a Success?

[@devonlockhart3512]

He did pretty decent for being out five years ill give him his props would of be sick to see him get one though but he did pretty good all year just couldn’t hang with the big dogs like he use to be able to do

[@idgaf_LJ]

No didn’t see da podium

[@3rdlineplug]

To be off as long as he was and still run up with the best on a bike that everyone seemed to struggle to set up, I’d say he had a great season.

[@megadawg342]

Yes. KTM's top rider. Always in the mix. Each year the racing conditions get a little harder. A comeback like his was remarkable.

[@trevorjohnson6207]

Yes 100% it was a success in my eyes! Couple holeshots, 4 top 5 overalls, and if he didn’t have that mechanical DNF at Washougal he would have not finished outside the top 10 once outdoors in a single Moto. In this day and age to have that consistently at the top of your game is hard, and dungey hasn’t raced Moto since thunder valley 2016 (6 years ago), and hasn’t raced at all professionally since Vegas 2017 (5 years ago). Plus he was training out of Minnesota, not full time at the bakers factory, or the goat farm like most all of the top riders are doing these days. I would even argue that dungey was, at times, better than Roczen outdoors this year. Picking back up, almost where you left off 5+ years ago in any profession would be difficult to say the least! All of that combined is what makes this feat even more amazing.

[@JR-zj6dh]

Yes success. Trained in MN vs Bakers & was a 4-5 winner week in and out after being on the "couch". MX champ, SX Champ, MXON Champ, Wheaties, ESPY...... family man, Christian. Dude's a legend.

[@shizachico1063]

That’s an understatement

[@ricericebaby_1660]

It was cool to watch him come out of retirement and he was still a great racer and He stayed healthy.

[@wd840mxhighlights]

I think it was a win win for those reasons

[@Grizzman99]

Awesome. So fun to watch Dungy again. Hate to see him go again.

[@wd840mxhighlights]

100%

[@minerva2558]

Absolute stud.

[@wd840mxhighlights]

100%

[@gunnar1797]

No doubt

[@johnsully7222]

The sport got faster, incredible techniques in the corners by Tomac and Sexton…new speed…similar to Bubba’s/Carmichaels]’s speed increase in 😅corners and jumps…sooo incredible for Dungey to be competitive…luv this sport!

[@wd840mxhighlights]

100%

[@joeygoosen3533]

Thxs man appreciate all the work to.get us these vids

[@wd840mxhighlights]

No Problem!

[@TheRealSuzuki6]

One of my favorite all time riders!

[@mikek6115]

I’m just glad he didn’t end up injured. It was really cool to see him ride this year but he should stay off the pro circuit. Go do some 2-stroke stuff, gncc, etc.

[@ahmedbutawan140]

Wow. . .great race🤩🤩🤩

[@SOFTAILX]

Legend status. Period.

[@cmora316]

great edit. great rider.

[@wd840mxhighlights]

Much appreciated🤙🏻

[@jacobshred67]

dude was fourth out of all our great riders, and i truley believe the pro motocross circuit is faster than mxgp riders tomac and sexton blew my mind, dungey did great

[@lchope573]

There's no fun at that level. It's all biz. Glad he got to experience a piece of it without the pressure even though he went back into work mode. That's all he knew. I'm sure there're were some expectations or they wouldn't have signed him for a one year deal out of a 5 year retirement. I think he performed well well above expectations.

[@MXRiderFiftyTwo]

It was probably the best thing ever , too have a break from the sport. Forced or unforced. GO #5

[@cesar2197]

He was owned by Ryan Villopotto his entire career, whom I truly believe it´s dungey´s daddy. Either way, props to Diesel on his attempt to make the box this time around

[@JustEdit22]

He was looking so good at Washougal but then he had bike issues

[@megadawg342]

So,... KTM's top rider was Ryan Dungey,.. and they couldn't convince him($?$?$) to compete again this year? Look at the Craig's and the Tomac's, and Roczen's. Yes it's a difficult life traveling like that, busy almost every moment. But, ordinary life SUQ'S by comparison!!!!

[@metalpower19]

He retired for a reason.

[@mxwarlord]

Do another one called "The Time RD went back into retirement" when he got a reality check, he did great and made the right move to go back to the couch, iMo...... The family is more important, they don't want D@D in a wheelchair...

[@BioDjango]

Do you even ride ?

[@mxwarlord]

@@BioDjango That's hilarious, that is me in the photo, if I revealed my true identity you would be surprised, do you ride anything besides a mobility scooter? Lol!

[@jonathanschultz3629]

7 years off and was consistently running top 5. Your a dumb fuck and you know nothing.

[@tpo12000]

he shouldve known he wouldnt even podium.he's lucky Tomac didnt put a target on him like he did at Vegas '17 and make him cry again

[@jonathanschultz3629]

Prime dungey and prime villopoto would wipe the whole field. Crazy how a guy can come from 7 years off and run right with them. Sport hasn’t progressed since villo and dungey
