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.

Mad Messenger

On Thursday Rm's 11 and 12 went to room 8A for a mad messenger lesson. The lesson was all about what we felt like when people called you names. The Mad messenger was an artist and drew Iron Man. It looked exactly like him from the movies.

Badminton

On Thursday room 11  went to the multipurpose room for our second badminton of term 2. When we got there we had to get into 2 partners to do our things we learnt last week. The grips we learnt last week were the back hand grip and the fore hand grip. The fore hand grip was like shaking someones hand and the back hand grip was like you were cooking eggs. The equipment's we had to use was a badminton racket and a shuttle. Our coach was Danny. It was really cool playing badminton.
