Even when it’s raining, Rudy Project glasses turn out to be true allies of the Rabobank cyclist in his triumph in the spring most classic race.
A final sprint with arms raised for the world class athlete Oscar Freire, champion of the Rudy Project team, who crossed the finishing line in the 100th anniversary of the Sanremo race (the 98th event, but the first was in 1907).
A world champion of the sport, (already winner of three world-class competitions and of the Milan-Sanremo of 2004), he would only choose the very best equipment, and that’s why the Spanish Oscar Freire wore, for the entire contest, Rydon glasses by Rudy Project. Ultralight glasses (weighing only 24 grams), noted for their aerodynamic shape, the perfect ergonomics of the Kynetium frames and the racing red lenses for filtering brightness, even in bad weather.
For the thirty-one-year-old Rabobank racer his Rydons have proved to be an important competitive bonus in order to beat his adversaries: Freire, in fact, was the only one of the first five contestants to wear his glasses until the end of the race.
For the italian company specialized in technical glasses, 2007 is already turning out to be a year rich in important victories. Since January, in fact, numerous Rudy Project athletes, from various countries around the world, have already totalled 23 victories such as the Australian Championship, the Tour of California and the Tour of Taiwan. The cycling season has just begun and there is great anticipation with regards to the performances of Ivan Basso in the Giro d’Italia and in the Tour de France. |
