Here’s an update of our adventure…

We’ve moved the shop 4600 kms east. Leaving the scenic beauty and our friends of Vancouver was a hard choice. For us to grow the business we needed to have space  and we wanted to embrace a simpler lifestyle… and the Ottawa Valley seems to be the ideal choice. It has beautiful nature, plenty of space, quaint little towns smack in the middle to our suppliers in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal.

 It was an eventful move but we are happy to announce… our shop is up and running.

And, for a limited time free shipping on all of our in-stock cycling caps continues!

Mail service continues & Happy Bastille Day

Here's the latest update from Canada Post and it's very good news...

No Canada Post Service Disruptions as Negotiations Continue.

Canada Post has withdrawn its lockout notice that was scheduled to take effect on Monday, July 11. As a result, there will be NO service disruption at this time and we expect mail service to continue without interruption as negotiations continue. As a result, Canada Post services, including shipments into Canada from other national carriers, like USPS and Royal Mail, will not be interrupted while negotiations continue.

The Summer's in full swing and if you haven't ordered one of our cycling caps, it's the time... and Free Shipping on all in-stock caps are on us!

Happy shopping!

Also...

Happy Bastille Day in France! The riders will conquer Mont Ventoux.

TGIF: We're Back with some changes

We're back…

Over the past few weeks we have been talking of restructuring our business. Not only restructuring our business… we also have moved to Ontario! It was a sudden decision to move and we’ve prepared the best we could in a short time we had but what really added to our stress is the possible lockout/strike from Canada Post. At this point we are extremely happy to announce Canada Post has extended their negotiations for the time being. That means, for now, shipping resumes as usual. And we continue with Free Shipping!

Unfortunately, we are unable to resume custom orders production until July 15.

In the mean time, go ahead and place your order!

Going on vacation mode soon.

There has been talk of a possible Canada Post strike.  In the light of this, our shop will remain open until the end of Sunday June, 26. All orders received up till then will be shipped on Monday June 27. We will take the opportunity to go on vacation for two weeks. During this vacation time we plan to relax, drink some craft beer and plan new caps for the upcoming Fall/winter season!

Restructuring, free shipping... and planning a vacation

As you may know, we have stopped custom orders in fact, our custom order production area is temporarily closed. Why? We are restructuring our business and plan to re-open late July. Also, we will take a much deserved time off. Don't despair, our shop is always open where you can purchase our in-stock cycling caps. And, enjoy free shipping too!

TGIF: Spotlight on the FRF Custom Cap

All photos: Red Dots Cycling

A rewarding part of our cycling cap business is working closely with our customers on the design and production process of their custom caps. Our  Fraser River Fuggitivi (FRF) Cycling Club is now a properly registered association based in New Westminster BC. A new kit was needed and that means looking for sponsors to paid for it.

As part of the sponsorship design competition, it was fun to see all the different designs from team members and their kids. In the end, we are very glad to be chosen as the final kit design. Keeping it all Canadian is good too, the superb kit is made Louis Garneau of Quebec and the caps made by us in Vancouver. Carolle and I couldn't be prouder!

TGIF: Road Trip & Guvnors' Assembly Cycling Cap Offer

Big changes are coming. We have been planning this for sometime. Our production area is re-structuring, and that means we have temporary closed custom order production for at least through the month of June. Meanwhile, we have been working hard to keep our in regular caps stocked. Our Etsy site will remain open and all of our in-stock caps are available to purchase. Because our production area is closed we are planning a much needed vacation! We will return, fully rested and with new ideas for our upcoming winter cap collection.

Rule Britannia!

Tomorrow is the 102nd edition of the oldest one-day classic, Liege-Bastogne-Liege. The forecast is for snow. The 1980 edition was nasty, as Bernard Hinault (frozen fingers) rode to iconic victory...
