Partners team up to gift high-tech jackets to Verona racers
02/06/2016
As part of the sponsorship, each of the 2,000 participants in the race will receive an all-weather, waterproof Alé jacket made with eVent. The race is over 139 kilometres and includes climbs of approximately 2,500 metres.
Alé and eVent teamed up to create a jacket that is as lightweight and packable as possible so that the Granfondo cyclists can easily carry it or wear it during the race. “The jackets are 100% waterproof and windproof and offer the added benefit of air permeability to dissipate body heat and sweat that’s generated during high-intensity cycling,” eVent said in the build up to the race. “Taped seams further guarantee that riders will stay protected from wind and rain.”
