Yes Stu Paul was once even younger than you are now, difficult to believe :shock:

Of course none of the kids rode bikes in those days so schoolboy titles were a doddle :wink: and he's a bit shy so we try not to make a fuss about it :lol:

Unfortunately, it's been downhill ever since :cry:

Did get a bronze medal as a Junior though.
