Peter Sagan is coming to Japan! September 30th (Friday) Road Ride Event “Own Your Road-Special Ride with Sagan-” Invitation General Recruitment | Specialized Press Release

In late September 2022, professional road racer Peter Sagan, who is overwhelmingly popular for his glorious racing history, including Grand Tours, and his stylish and dynamic riding style, will come to Japan. In conjunction with the visit to Japan, Sagan and riders will interact with each other and hold a ride event called “Own Your Road ~ Special Ride with Sagan ~” that will be a lifetime memory. We will invite 10 people to this event by lottery.

“Own Your Road” contains a message to riders through Sagan’s way of life. Sagan is a three-time world champion and seven-time Tour de France points winner, with countless glorious achievements. Surprisingly, his motto is “Why so serious?”

He also talks about racing:

“Don’t overthink it. You can’t always win, that’s what sport is. You have to be happy with the result if you go to the finish knowing that you did your best.”

Sagan has built his career not by frowning and worrying, but by doing what he does best. By “walking your own path” like him and riding a bicycle, you can expand your world and expand your possibilities.

With the raison d’etre of “Pedal the Planet Forward”, we aim to improve people’s health and quality of life through cycling, as well as to improve the environment and social issues.

In order to meet the needs of riders who want to ride faster, Specialized built the industry’s first in-house wind tunnel, the Win Tunnel, in 2013 to pursue aerodynamics. We provide motorcycles and other equipment to the top teams that have won many victories in world tours such as the Tour de France.

Our stance of insatiable challenge to technological innovation is also reflected in our action guideline, “Innovate or Die.”

In addition to top athletes, we have developed a wide range of lineups for general users around the world, such as mountain bikes, road bikes, cross bikes, kids bikes, e-bikes, etc., which utilize the same technology as the bikes ridden by top professional riders. We sell models.
