I have a Disco hat. I like it and it doesn't have that odd Euro fit with the little "bill".

In other words, it's a "baseball" cap, but also called a "finish line" cap.

The little bill makes it a cycling cap. This type of bill makes it easy to pop the brim up out of the way or down to block precipitation and limited-use sun visor.

Um, it doesn't have to be a cycling specific hat......mine isn't, and it keeps my head and ears warm while riding.....

I love Europe. I love British accents, Irish beer, German food, French fashion and Italian women.

I just don't like the little hats.
