Amateur tests compression apparel on Tour route

15/07/2010
An amateur cyclist from the north of England has been riding the Tour de France route ahead of the professionals, testing compression apparel for specialist sports clothing brand Skins.

Quentin Field-Boden is among the cycling lovers who, every year, aim to complete the same tests as the sport’s stars.

Compression sportswear company Skins donated a series of products to see how much help compression apparel can be to “an ordinary guy”.
