PRO Quirks and Superstitions



Quirks
1. Many PROs will get their chamois changed over to Assos as soon as they get their kit.

2. PROs will wear Oakley sunglasses while training regardless of who their eyewear sponsor is.

3. PRO helmets are often custom made so that they look smaller and have an individual fit.

4. PRO shoes are often made with a custom fit.

Superstitions
1. PROs will often wear their undershirt the way it comes out of the wash. It doesn’t matter if it’s inside out or not. That’s the way it’s meant to be worn if the washing machine says so.

2. If you get #13 in a race, you are to wear it upside down. There is no telling what will happen if it is worn rightside up.


Interesting to find out some customs not really heard off.
