Two very strong and experienced at Bike Odyssey athletes decided to join forces for the Nine-Days Race in the Men's Professional Category.

Those are Kalogeropoulos Grigoris and Petridis Theodoros, who decided to race together as a team in the UCI Elite Men category for the Nine-Days Race. The two athletes are not rookies to the event,  as both have taken part in it multiple times in the past.
