A ten-year-old Manx moto-crosser is to represent Britain at the World Championships.
Jed Etchells is currently lying second in both the British Youth Motocross Championships 65cc class and the Red Bull Elite Youth Cup 65cc class.
To cap a great season he has been approached by the Auto Cycle Union to ride for Great Britain at the FIM World Championships round in Italy later this summer.
Jed is understandably excited about the prospect but his mum, Samantha, realises its also a big burden:
