Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

we're discussing cycling caps.

none of are particularly well made, and paying more than $5 for one is a waste of cash.

Even cheap ones will last a few seasons.

one of the better sources for authentic items.. The seller is in Ireland but it usually only takes 7 days for delivery.. I have bought many items from her and she is solid..

I don't know if it's the best, but I got mine (overpriced yes, but still enjoyable) at https://www.elevengear.us/poseur.html

As a bald guy, I have a collection of cycling caps. I try to pick them up on sale, and manage to buy most cotton caps for less than $6 or so.

Hammer Nutrition sells a very good one manufactured by Pace - unlike old school cotton caps, it's made from CoolMax, and has a very functional sweatband. Only $8.95.



It's a really nice cap for the hot days of summer.
