Cycling caps - a new one

 

I have worn a traditional cotton cycling cap under my helmet since about 2002 (with the peak turned up, obviously) - keeping my head warm in winter, and soaking up sweat in the summer.

Over the years I think I've had four helmets and have just moved to the third new cap.  All have been SAECO branded, an Italian coffee machine manufacturer that has sponsored various pro cycling teams.

The three caps with the obvious signs of wear from oldest to the new one.
