Four riders coming from New Zealand into the Czech world juniors. A 16-year-old Townley, a 14-year-old, a 13-year-old... an experience like this, taking on your generation's global best at this age, is worth more than anything else. I'll say it flat out: whoever gets tempered by this ends up with an eye for reading the surface that becomes a weapon later. Makes you want to root for a challenge from a small Pacific nation.

Since the brothers seem to be split into different classes, there probably won't be a head-to-head, but still curious.
