Meet Adrian
He turned 12 a couple of weeks ago, and today he rode past me on my attempt to climb Old School Road.
I conked out with about 50 metres to go where the gradient was about 26%. But Adrian kept going, and made it to the top on his Giant Alias Mountain Bike.
I watched in awe and cheered him on. Then when he made it I shook his hand, asked if I could take his photo, and (if I would have though of it) would have asked for his autograph.
Imagine what this kid could do in 10 years time?
Good on ya, Adrian, the new king of Old School Road.
