When sneezing, virus droplets can reach a speed of around 45 meters per second without a face mask and fly for metres. As a rule, people become infected with viruses when an infected person speaks, sneezes or coughs in their vicinity. The virus then passes through the air directly onto the mucous membranes of the other person. Sportschneider UYN has responded to this by producing face masks.

Odlo, the performance sportswear company that also equips Nino Schurter, has converted its European production facility in Portugal to the manufacture of face masks. Medical facilities, hospitals and care homes are now supplied directly by Odlo. Private individuals will also be able to purchase so-called "community masks" via the online store from the beginning of May.

In addition to single-colored versions, Maloja now also offers five different design variants of mouth-nose masks as well as two versions for children. As with the single-colored masks, the bike fashion provider has also placed great emphasis on functionality with these models: The three-layer mouth-nose masks are made from breathable polyester fabric and are equipped with a fleece insert as a droplet filter.

Cult biker Hans Rey recommends e-mountain bike tires from Italy. Transition has a new bike with a 120 millimeter stroke that plays in the all-country league rather than the downhill league. And there are protective masks from Buff, which of course not only protect, but are also intended for a good cause.
