Not unsurprising at the age of 11.

Imagine these two guys getting into a duel (a cycling duel! Not a sword-fighting duel, or shooting duel.)

Mathias Post

Mathias Post (born 2007-11-22) is a road racing cyclist from Denmark, currently riding for Team Aalborg - Sparekassen Danmark.

Mathias Posth

Mathias Posth (born 2009-01-01) is a road racing cyclist from France, active between 2024 and 2026.

Would have to be from 2028 at the earliest, since Posth is still a junior.

Would have to be from next year at the earliest, since Posth is still a junior.

Posth is also still a junior next year so it‘s possible only from 2028 onwards.

Yeah, like I wrote...

Also, he's basically the oldest you can be as a junior.

He's done some gravel races this month so he appears to still be alive despite his name.

Luke Lamperti is a pretty cool name. First of all, it alliterates, which is always fun. And then the surname is a very Lombard form with the /p/ for original /b/ (etymologically it's something like Land-bright). I'm a big fan of the Lombards (the Langobards, not the Lega)

And then there's Dorian Godon, specifically his last name. Now, this is certainly not the case, but I like to think of it as the medieval French anti-English slur godon (supposedly from god damn), as used for example by ma tres chiere Jehanne la Pucelle
