For a second straight year, Red Bull KTM's Ryan Dungey has been nominated for an ESPY for Best Male Action Sports Athlete. In 2015, Dungey became the first athlete not named Nyjah Huston or Shaun White to win the award since 2007. He was also the first motocross/supercross racer to win an ESPY for Best Action Sports Male Athlete.
Travis Pastrana was the only other motorcyclist to win the award back in 2007 when he was recognized for his double backflip in 2006 and winning three gold medals at X Games in Moto X Best Trick, Moto X Freestyle, and Rally Car Racing.
Dungey will be competing against freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy, skateboarders Nyjah Huston and Pedro Barros and snowboarder Mark McMorris.
Voting ends on July 13, at 8:00 p.m. EST. You can vote now here.
The ESPYS, created by ESPN in 1993, recognize sports-related achievements.
