Hi! I'm Tudor...
... and for me, free27 means something more than a funny play on words. Ok, to be fair, it is a play on words, between the freedom of riding motorcycles and the number, 327.
At first, I get it... This sounds like a random number that I picked just to get a catchy domain name. But for me, this number means a whole lot more.
10 years ago, I was in high school. On the side, I was doing timekeeping for big events, and somehow I got to whitness RedBull Romaniacs. That moment, then and there, marked the rest of my life. Suddenly, I had a goal. Something to pursue. I knew nothing about dirt bikes, nothing about enduro, or riding... But I knew that, one way, I had to somehow get up that final hill... And across the finish line!
Fast forward almost a decade, and in 2024, I signed up for the toughest day of my life. That year, I wasn't ready. The weather taught me how unforgiving it can be, and I was forced to withdraw after just 2 days. Devastated.
In the moment, finishing Romaniacs looks like an impossible task. I was stubborn, nothing less than Bronze class was going to do. And still, I signed up again. Trained harder, prepared more, sorted out my nutrition. And in 2025, that moment finally came. Through hellishly long days in the saddle, through pain and everything the track threw at me... I crossed that infamous finish line. In that moment, my biggest life goal was accomplished. Now, why does this matter? You see, my lucky number, during that edition, was... you guessed it... 327.
THE PROBLEM
Ever since I started riding dirt bikes, I kept facing the same problem. I don't deal well with heat. In fact, during one ride, I almost suffered a heat stroke. Not cool, let me tell you. Both literally and metaphorically.
Ever since, I wanted to design and build my own jersey. I wanted to find a material so ventilated that overheating was never going to be an issue, ever again. Plus, I kept seeing features that were clever, but underused. Finally, in 2025, I decided to built my own jersey. After talking to numerous suppliers, iterating through designs, my perfect jersey came to life. And so... I decided to thare it with you. You're welcome :)
