Unlike most riders in the sport today, Dungey grew up racing during harsh winters. It took him long hours of training and practicing on the track to get to where he is today.  Ryan finally got people’s attention when he won multiple amateur titles at the Lake Whitney, World Mini, Oak Hill and Winter Olympic races. Ryan finally won the Loretta Lynn’s Amateur Championship in 2005. To win this award it takes a lot of skill and determination.  In spring of 2006 he was planning to try for the Loretta Lynn’s Amateur Championship when Suzuki surprised him with a contract up for grabs.
