+1 on Southwick....that was a jaw dropping effort

Millville Washougal Southwick Freestone He was pretty much unstoppable at those 4 venues on numerous occasions. Don't have links to any those races

Hand shifting his KTM at the MEC rates right up there. Couldn't believe what I was witnessing.

Southwick or the MEC. Both great rides and showed his determination.

Not as awesome as Southwick or the others stated above but when he battled and beat RV in Minneapolis, that was pretty rad. And I'm an RV fan.

He has a lot. What a career. Hard to rate them. Southwick '11 for sure, but also as recent as New Jersey SX '17. Did not expect him to come out ready. And he was. Another great ride.

I don't know about best ride but watching him steal the overall from Kenny at Glen Helen on the last lap a few years back was sweet. They where both hauling that day.

South wick for me too! Just the drama of the entire situation. From the rain to the Suzuki not starting to entering the race almost a complete lap down! Incredible moment in our sport period, not just for RD!,

Southwick. But he has had so many championship saving rides over his career where he limited the damage and won title after title.

That was an awesome last lap pass.

Honestly you can make a case for either. Is there any other time we know of a rider continuing a race while having to shift by hand? Didn't he even have to do it in the 3rd moto since it was not completely fixed after the moto it happened in?

This...I was there...it was incredible...for those who say he never 'beat' rv...he was on point that night...

Definitely Southwick, the effort he put in that race was awe-inspiring. I think it was an Inside the Outdoors episode that showed the whole ordeal with his mum yelling at him as he finally got going. How could you not admire Dungey after that!

A1 2010 he served notice on js7. I thought he would be really special from that point on. How many guys ever even finished ahead of him in a 450 series? Davi, Rv , Chad and Roczen? Anyone else?

Southwick was hands down the ride of a true champion, there were a lot of others that were top notch too.

That list is correct if u don't factor 2016 outdoors, a season which he didn't come close to completing. 4 guys. That's a short list.

Yep. Ryan had to make that pass happen. Kenny was riding great that day.
