This kid is 10 but he placed 3rd out of a field of 13 overall (beating grownups and strong teenagers) in the short circuit mountain bike race at the 1st annual Nantucket Mountain Bike Rodeo.
Watts/pound not total wattage is whats rules in mountain biking. That is quite a hill you captured him climbing. One must ride hills like that to really appreciate what it requires from the riders. Tough kid!!

And to rub it in their faces, he even did it with that heavy bike lock attached to his bike during the race. What a jerk.
A winner
His parents should buy him new equipment if he keeps winning these things. He deserves a better fitting new bike, and a helmet upgrade. Heck, he might win all that at a race soon if he's this good.
