Cycling Gregarius Pro Team Gelato Jersey – White • Q36.5On the third and final rest day of the 2026 Giro d’Italia, the Pinarello-Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team embraced a moment of camaraderie and recovery by donning the distinctive Gregarius Pro Team Gelato jersey. This choice not only highlighted the team’s unity but also underscored Q36.5’s commitment to blending performance with the rich cultural traditions of cycling.
A Tribute to Cycling’s Social Essence
The Gregarius Pro Team Gelato jersey is a testament to Q36.5’s philosophy of balancing intense training with the joy of cycling’s social aspects. Founder Luigi Bergamo articulated this vision, stating, “At the inception of Q36.5, I envisioned a special jersey that would serve as a counterbalance to our intense technical approach. We aim to celebrate the spirit of cycling: friendly pedaling, engaging conversations with teammates on the move, and the simple pleasure of stopping for a gelato when the mood strikes.” (cyclingnews.com)

It features a modern raglan cut, ribbed sleeve system, and a combination of ultra-breathable front panels with a honeycomb mesh back, ensuring excellent thermoregulation and comfort. The jersey’s unique design serves as a subtle nod to the post-ride tradition of enjoying gelato, encapsulating the essence of Italian cycling culture. (q36-5.com)
