Ryan Dungey on Honeymoon in St. Lucia

Edited Date/Time 11/19/2014 8:46pm
Probably of minor interest but a friend of mine that works at the Sandals Grande Hotel here in St. Lucia, West Indies bounced into Ryan and his new bride today and somewhat embarrassingly did not recognize him for hell even though he is a motocross rider and huge supercross fan! Eventually his wife had to tell him who he is!!

I found the Dungey's wedding website with a picture of the handsome couple: http://www.theknot.com/wedding/Siegle-Dungey/view/4612167553671813/4183…

Kind of cool that they chose a Caribbean island in my neck of the woods for their honeymoon! Apparently they leave on Thursday to head back home.

Hopefully my friend will get a couple of pics with him before he leaves.

Thanks for the comments, and particular thanks to Kawaboy for the support!

MxKing, just to put the record straight it was not as bad as it sounds. When Dungey told my friend that he rode a KTM, he made the comment about some of the stars in supercross that rode KTMs and even rattled off a couple of other riders that ride KTM's like Roczen and Anderson but forgot to mention the best known KTM rider who was standing right in front of him! So I guess his wife was kinda surprised that he did not recognize Ryan and edged him on...

Happens to everyone now and then, I remember riding the airport shuttle and a PC riders was on there with us , I was racking my brain for the name and when I said Tedesco out loud He laughed and showed me the sticker on his phone , it was Sorby.

Thank God Sorby only took people out on the track LMAO.

That's a hilarious situation.

Lucian_rider's friend: "You ride dirtbikes? I'm a big fan of Supercross. Last season was intense; Andrew Short and K-Roc sure looked great on the new KTM 450s that they essentially helped develop from the ground up. I just hope Factory KTM isn't sunk now that Ken split for the RCH Sycuan Casino Jimmy John's RMZ450."

Dungey: "Uhh. . ."

Wow what an afternoon!! My friend called me yesterday to say that he had spoken to Ryan and he had agreed to meet with a bunch of enthusiast and some members of the press. So it was arranged that we would all meet at Sandals hotel where we had use of the boat dock/restaurant area where we could spend some time with Ryan and also let him be questioned by a few members from the local TV stations.

He was extremely gracious as was Lindsay his beautiful bride and I think they were amazed by the appreciation that we all had for him to go out of his way and entertain us. He won us all over and I think we are fans for life!!

We were amazed at how grounded he is and down to earth, he's the kind of guy I would like to hang out with. Although he has traveled overseas, this was apparently his first holiday ever out of the US!

I took all of the photos below except for the two that I am in, I also had him sign a St. Louis Supercross shirt I got when I went up to the US just for the Supercross back in March, we chatted about the race and a bit about Roczen leaving the team. He mentioned that because they knew Roczen was leaving, they did not give him the new bikes to test on which Ryan says are a huge improvement to the 2014 bike he was riding.

I chatted to Lindsay and asked her if he was still training whilst on holiday and she said he was. He was spending time in the gym sometimes spending two sessions a day! Apparently he has a new trainer and he has been given strict instructions!

I think it would be hard to find a nicer pro racer than Ryan and here in St. Lucia we will be rooting for him to win the 2015 championship!


The Dunge!!


The press looks on.


Pigeon Island in the background.


Thats the friend that I have been talking about!! HIs name is Terroll Compton and he is the Dive Shop manager and ex President of the St. Lucia Motocross Club of which I was a founding member.


Thats me on the left. The others are past members of the SLMX club.


Ryan and Lindsay were presented with a ceramic tile with a photo from their wedding which they seemed to appreciate.




A kiss for the cameras!

Why the hell won't the photos work??
Here is a link to the Photobucket album until a moderator can figure out why they won't work...

Edit, OK I figured it out. Photo bucket appended to each link ~original after the .jpg so it was being misinterpreted... Fixed now.

Thanks for sharing!

Your links won't work because they are incorrect. I don't think the "[ing]" at the end should be there.

I think so as well. Maybe for the wrong reasons...
Is the thread weird for the original post about Ryan or the stupid Sarah Marshal comment and video being posted??

If people don't like it then please leave it alone...

It's weird that he took pictures at something that kind of looked like a press conference? You guys are lame.
