Everyone in that video except Wayne sounds like they just smoked 80 John player specials that day lol. Fair play to the ol boy tho, as you say rob. Legend
I remember feeling devastated when he got his life changing injury. To see his grin and his feedback on being able to ride a bike again was amazing. Well done Sir!
That was superb, I can’t believe it’s been 26 years since the accident. Rainey, Eddie, Schwantz, Doohan, Gardner what an era.
I was in in Barcelona for the gp a year or two after his accident and during the race he was spotted on a quad ,on the infield , watching the race. Thousands stood and applauded . One of the most moving things I've ever witnessed. Get goose bumps now !
That music was fucken annoying over that video, kinda spoiled it...loved to see Wayne back in his happy place tho, he was a frikken legend! Saw him race in Eng in 92 when I was living there. Was a terrible way to end for him and IIRC Schwantz ended up with the championship as a result, which must have felt a very hollow victory for him...in fact he gave up after that I think?
Absolute legend Rainey and all the other guys of that era, fantastic to see him looking so happy and absolutely buzzing after that ride..great stuff
