I’ll see if I can coax my son to do it too. I noticed @tpbiker described him as ‘untrained’ in the other thread. I just stated that he didn’t cycle seriously – not the same thing at all.
Well clearly if he is training in other sports to a decent level then that would be a massive factor if he can do it or not. You didn’t really indicate that though, merely saying he cycles for transport
Likewise if he’s a 100kg rugby player then it’s not that Impressive a feat. If he’s only 75kg however (like the lad who has been cycling for 6 weeks on other thread) then I’d be hugely impressed if he can do it as ‘easily’ as you suggest he will, even if he is trained.
Obviously some folks will able to hit those numbers without being serious cyclists or athletes, but let’s not pretend that’s the ‘norm’ just because folks are young. And given this is the internet please excuse me if I am sceptical of such bold claims without evidence to back them up (which this test will provide!)
All I know is I won’t be attempting this challenge..
