What were you doing at 15? Actually, probably best you don't answer that one... Whatever the answer, it's almost certainly not: "Yeah, I was just casually knocking out 340km rides with 2,800m of elevation in under 12 and a half hours. Average speed? Think that was 27.3km/h, but I'd have to check, pal..."
We're pretty baffled/impressed/stunned by this monster day out by 15-year-old Alec Perry. I'll say that again...15 years old...
Alec's Strava is private, so you'll have to request a follow to leave some well-earned kudos, but Leah shared her son's ride, saying he is desperate to be in the Tour de France. Going like that the 2027 peloton better watch out...(cc: Dave Brailsford).
Tom Pidcock, Sir Bradley Wiggins and Jeremy Vine were just three of the names getting the ride forwarded to them. I suspect this won't be the last we hear of this one...
Now, allow us all a second to retrieve our jaws from the floor, and we'll get stuck into some of the amazed reaction to Alec's epic...
Get that man a beer! Sorry, no...not beer...I mean...age-appropriate drink of choice...
