Lochie Kavanagh, the 18 year old that basically took up serious riding just to do this without any prior experience is now in Melbourne, and seems to be hell bent to carry on even though he came off and smashed out his front teeth. Crazy mofo.
He's clearly determined but I reckon smashed front teeth is probably a good reason to stop and get fixed. Especially as the race was cancelled 9 days ago.
He wasn't on his phone when I spoke to him in Adelaide. Kid was switched on and likeable. Hope he stops to get the teeth fixed before he carries on though. Must hurt a bunch.
