The 12th Jeantex Bike Transalp, the fascinating mountain bike race over the Alps by teams of two, ended with the triumph of two Rudy Project devotees, the young champions Lukas Buchli and Thomas Stoll.
The two Swiss bikers bested the 550 competing couples (1100 competitors from 40 nations) who were biking to win up to the last kilometer, engaging in an exciting battle.
Buchli and Stoll won first place in the overall rankings, completing the race in 23 h 42 min 28 sec. The race included 8 grueling legs, for a total of 528 kilometers of track and 18,808 meters of elevation. A fascinating path through the breathtaking scenery of the Dolomites, starting in Bavaria, Germany and arriving in Italy on Lake Garda.
In order to better concentrate on the competition and focus on the yellow jersey of mountain biking, the Swiss pair entrusted Rudy Project with the protection of their eyes by wearing Exowind eyewear.
Arising from valued partnerships with the greatest names in international cycling, Exowind sunglasses are distinguished by the application of the latest technology and the comfort of their fit. Also valued is the support provided in competition by Rudy Project’s ImpactX photochromatic and indestructible lenses, suitable to wear for many hours at any time of day, under any weather and light conditions, ensuring protection and excellent optical quality.
