The scenes on television of a professional peloton that is stripped of water bottles and bar wrappers during a competition sometimes cause a dent in public opinion, which does not look favorably on cyclists who leave debris as they pass through the route with the image that this implies and the mark that is marked on the road.
In the case of professional cycling, the route is cleaned by a brigade that the organization itself provides after the passage of the race, something that cannot happen in the passage of the thousands of groups that fill the roads and paths every weekend or in the many competitions that, under normal circumstances, are developed by organizations with more modest means.
In these cases, the cyclist's responsibility is individual and has to do with leaving the environment as he found it and will like to find it.
There are many comments on the networks about the amount of waste that one finds on the route and on the roads: it is not acceptable in a group that calls itself environmentalist and whose activity does not pollute.
An additional pocket
The whole life of the jerseys have carried their two or three back pockets to store the few things a cyclist needs on the road, documentation, money, a cell phone and, if the route is long, some bars or gels, however, since the beginning of time, they have been able to carry a few extra pockets. Gobik However, we have thought of a small additional pocket in mesh and that is, above all, accessible.
Ángel Lencina, from Product Development tells us at GobikThe design responds to a quick access, that it is small and does not affect the fit of the garment. In any case, it is intended to be much simpler to use than traditional pockets, which do not disappear or fail to fulfill their function".
It is arranged in a grid "so as to avoid the condensation effect that can melt a bar along the way. Once consumed, we can store the remains there until the wrapper can be deposited in the appropriate container".
The Cold Series 20-21 is the first collection to incorporate this small pocket, it does so in two pieces, the jersey long sleeve Pacer and in the vest Plus 2.0. "Other pieces such as the jacket Skimo Pro even traditionally incorporate a much larger inner mesh pocket on the inside of the back. Also the models Cobble y Supercobble models also incorporate a fourth pocket, this one with a zipper, so as not to mix up the nutritional remains with other objects".
