The picture, as you can imagine, has taken the internet by storm. When you think of a cyclist, this is not how you imagine their legs! Pawel earned over 3,100 comments and 30,000 likes.
Just in case you are wondering, Pawel’s legs do not normally look so veiny and sunburnt! He had to post a picture of himself at the pool to show people what he legs normally look like.
What helps cyclists push themselves to complete such a grueling race?
Pawel says it is the love of family that helps him.
Share away, people!
