Rolf Prima signs New Zealand triathlete - Graham O'Grady

The newest addition to the Rolf Prima sponsored triathletes - Graham O'Grady may be young but is not new to the sport. Often called "Gog", O'Grady entered his first triathlon at the age of 18 and before this, was a part of many team sports including field hockey. Inspired by watching eight-time, New Zealand Ironman Champion, Cameron Brown; O'Grady has put his heart into every triathlon he enters. O'Grady has represented NZ in four World Championships, taking 5th in 2003 at the Queenstown ITU Triathlon World Championship and will continue to represent on his Rolf Prima TdF58 tubulars and new Rolf Prima tubular carbon Disc.

O'Grady's top ten World finishes include 2nd at the Vienna Premium ETU Cup in 2008, 3rd at The Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon in 2009 and 2nd in 2008 and 3rd at the New Zealand Elite National Championships earlier this year.

With goals of representing New Zealand in the Olympic Games, this newest addition to the Rolf Prima group will give us all someone to cheer for. Next on O'Grady's schedule is the Los Angeles Triathlon, on October 4th, followed by the US Open Triathlon in Dallas, TX on the 11th.
