I used to wear a Tilley, but the air flow noise and loosing them because I took them off for fast descents (flapping and noise) and they found they way free (at one-two a year, that gets pricy) I switched to a cycling cap. Wool from www.Walz.com. Four ply boiled wool hat over it in winter. Grin. With abandon, Patrick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

This year I’ve been wearing a Shelta hat https://www.sheltahats.com/products/the-firebird The front brim is stiff like a ball cap while the surrounding wide brim is soft like a Tilley. So far, it stays on my head at 20+ mph descents and keeps sun off my ears and neck. They have different styles with varying widths in the side.

Re: [RBW] What do Rivendell Riders wear for cycling caps?
Mostly I wear caps from the Walz Velo/City collection. They are wool (for the most part anyway) which you'd think would be hot hear in Hawaii (and on RAGBRAI and mainland rides). I like the bigger visor over normal cycling caps and, being wool, they don't start stinking right away on tours.

Re: [RBW] What do Rivendell Riders wear for cycling caps?
Oh, I love cycling caps. Summer: I wear caps mainly for sweat control (even the 1/2 mile rt to the store just now -- panniers easier for loads than carrying while walking -- with bare head had sweat flowing down my face and making my sunglasses slip), and perhaps they do a bit for shade (though I wear sunglasses) and even for wind protection. In the rare occasions I ride in the rain, the brim keeps the driving drops from stinging my face and even keeps my shades freer of raindrops. I presently own about 6 or 7 Nashbar-distributed retro team caps (which cause me all kinds of anxiety when it comes to matching them with jerseys: is it caddish to wear my nice Bianchi cap with my Bianchi jersey? What about a Legnano cap with a Sugoi jersey?); 2 or 3 remaining custom caps from an order from LittlePackage some 5-6 years ago; and a green Rivendell cap. With all but the customs, I shorten the brims by ~8 mm by severely bending them upward, this so I can see out from under the bills when in the hooks. Low brow, doncha know. Winter: I have 3 wool cycling caps with reasonable brims that to some degree or other do stay put over my ears: a big floppy Walz** from Synaptic Cycles; a nice Trek or Specialized cap; and a cheapo wool that I bought on eBay that is pretty good for the money, though a bit too snug -- I have a large head. For really cold weather I wear a pseudo Peruvian cap in cheap wool***, with earflaps that tie under my jaw, or a balaclava, though I haven't used one of these last for several years -- too much of a hassle to get it on, when the Peru cap keeps me almost as warm. * I think that the brims on these may be as long as 4 cm. An earlier set had ~3 cm brims, and used to cause my daughter all sorts of social grief when I rode over to meet her at school. Riding temps from 100+ highs, tho' with humidity high if it gets past 10%, to the upper middle teens. ** This has caused snide comments from the teenage girl set when I ditto. *** $12 or less from Target 6-8 years ago, but very practical.
