Are You Faster Than A 14 Year Old?

Who would win in a race: an ex-pro cyclist or a 14 year old kid? You don’t need to look much further than the likes of Remco Evenepoel and Fem van Empel to know that young cyclists are fast! Hank goes head-to-head with 14-year-old Harley Widdowson and 17-year-old Oli Akers in a series of challenges to test speed, climbing and bike skills. Can youth beat experience?
