Yowamushi Pedal's Teshima Junta Gets A Real-Life Bicycle Sponsor
posted on by Bamboo Dong
For up-and-coming athletes, corporate sponsorships represent a hefty paycheck, more publicity, and a sign that you've finally made it to the big leagues. Luckily for Yowamushi Pedal's Teshima Junta, that milestone has been reached.
He (or rather, Yowamushi Pedal) is teaming up with bicycle maker Cannondale, his personal ride of choice, to help promote the company's SuperSix EVO 3 Ultegra racing bike, and its Hooligan Road mini-velo small-wheel bike. From now until October 25, anyone who spends 10,000 yen (about US$91.82) or more at a Cannondale retailer will receive one of two A2-sized posters.
Posters are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The new campaign comes just in time for the premiere of Yowamushi Pedal Grande Road sequel.
