Team Sky don blood red glasses for World Haemophilia Day

Team Sky’s riders at the Vuelta Castilla y León will take to the start line of Sunday’s final stage wearing blood red Oakley Jawbone glasses to show their support for World Haemophilia Day. The initiative was inspired by Sky’s Alex Dowsett, who has the disease and acts as an ambassador for the World Haemophilia Society.
