His racing helmet was spray painted by his uncle. His equipment are all aerodynamic such as his helmet, carbon-fibre wheels, shoes and his skin suit. He started riding a bike when he was 3 years old, he got tought how to ride one because his brothers helped him. When he was 3½  years old he took off his training wheels and started riding without them. He started competing for N.Z when he was eight years old. He started his own company called Myron’s Muesli and you can only purchase it online and not in the supermarket.
