Lol he's very good is Max, the boy has raced him a fair bit. I can safely say he won't be riding that though.ย 

Properly nice kid, brought up well, very polite etc

ย 

To be picky, it's not the world champs but this weekends world cup race in Polandย

That pic is classic local news photographer fare ๐Ÿ˜€

Wonder if they grabbed the bike off a passing commuter?

TBF the lad could have taken the initiative to bring his DH kit and bike, but he is only 16.

Excellent pic. 🤣ย  @weeksy - Gotta get the story behind it if you see him at a race meet in the future!

We see him fairly regularly, but at the moment i think him and his folks are concentrating a little more on IXS and we're sticking mostly UK, but i'll deffo ask his mum next time we're chatting
