The women's team of Volkerwessels Cycling Team stood at the start of the Tour de France Femmes for the second time this year. We support their team with cycling glasses, which were not an unnecessary luxury during this sunny and hot edition. Despite the difficult conditions, they put in strong performances and we wanted to know what was needed for this, and what preparation preceded it. Marieke van Wanroij, responsible for Coaching and Development within the team, spoke to us.

Cycling glasses are like a windshield for your head, not only do they protect your eyes from harmful UV radiation, but they also shield against other external elements like rain, wind, dust, stones, and bugs. That’s why it’s important to invest in high-quality cycling glasses and handle them with care to ensure they last longer, allowing you to fully enjoy their benefits ride after ride.
