Event-specific jersey to be included with registration in 2024.

(Gettysburg, PA – December 26, 2023) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Gran Fondo National Series and SUAREZ Cycling Apparel today released the designs for event-specific cycling jerseys that will be included with registration for 2024 Gran Fondo National Series owned events. Now in its third year as the title sponsor of the SUAREZ Gran Fondo National Series, this is the first year the Colombian apparel company and the Series organizer have coordinated to include event-specific jerseys with registration.

“SUAREZ continues to be a phenomenal partner and supports our vision to always enhance rider experience at SUAREZ Gran Fondo National Series events,” said Gran Fondo National Series founder and director, Reuben Kline. “The jersey designs for 2024 events tie into our brand and yet are distinct enough to appeal to riders who complete multiple events.”

All riders who register at least 24 days in advance of an event are guaranteed a jersey in their selected size. A limited number of event-specific jerseys will be available for size exchanges. Riders who register less than 24 days before the event will not receive a jersey. “Realities of production times, and the cost consequences of producing excess jerseys is not financially feasible. We’d love to give a jersey to every one of our riders, but size needs are far too unpredictable,” said Kline. These event jerseys will not be required to be worn during the events.

“We are very pleased with the response we’ve experienced from Gran Fondo National Series riders and we’re proud to continue supporting these great events,” said International Commercial Executive, Alejandro Castro Suarez. “We’re including high-performance jerseys for event participants so they can experience SUAREZ craftsmanship and comfort firsthand.”

In addition to event-specific jerseys, SUAREZ provides:

• Age Group Champion Kits: Gran Route age group winners at each SUAREZ Gran Fondo National Series event received a custom winners kit.
• Series-wide Apparel: A Series branded cycling jerseys and bib shorts will be available for sale online and on-site at events.
• Commemorative Gran Fondo National Championships jersey: All riders who enter the 2024 Gran Fondo National Championships event in Frederick, Maryland, on September 15 will receive a commemorative jersey. Age group National Champions receive official “Stars and Stripes” national championship jerseys from USA Cycling.
• Jersey Customization: Athletes can have their names printed on any jersey of their choice at the SUAREZ tent during Gran Fondo National Series expos on event weekends.
