If he wins it on that we have a new Mountain Biking prodigy.

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. 

Properly nice kid, brought up well, very polite etc

 

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

That pic is classic local news photographer fare 😀

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. 🤣  @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
