Not many 11-year-olds are up for riding a road racing bike 130km/h on the back straight at Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park.
Meet Reeve Lee, the Taupō Intermediate Year 7 student who likes to go fast. This weekend Reeve is an entrant in the New Zealand superbike series at Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park, a rare achievement for someone his age.
His father Andy Lee says Reeve has been around motorcycles his whole life and is a very experienced rider, having competed in motocross for the past two years. He took up road racing late last year.
