New Raiment Bicycle Life Custom Caps

All photos Red Dots Cycling

We are extremely proud of our newest custom cap for ...Raiment Bicycle Life of Vancouver! It can be best describe as retro style cool. Made from pre-washed charcoal grey linen/cotton to avoid shrinkage. Linen/cotton has amazing properties of durability, fast wicking and comfort. We embroidered a bold red Raiment logo finishing with a red linen/cotton under brim complete with a stunning red and ivory ribbon. They are beautiful and practical as the perfect riding companion on or off the bike. Whilst we make many custom caps world wide it's extra satisfying for us, when we work locally. Carolle and I would like to thank the fine folks at Raiment Bicycle Life!

TGIF: The New Il Campionissimo Cycling Cap, Custom Colombian Caps & Operation: Fresh Air

IL Campionissimo Cycling Cap

We love making custom caps. Our latest new addition, Il Campionissimo, was inspired from an Australian customer some time ago. We wrestled with the idea of an all white cap - and decided to go for it. White is a new color for us, outside our comfort zone because we love muted, darker and plaid. But it really makes sense, the summer sun is harsh and riding a bike can be daunting. White is reflective and linen/cotton wicks moisture better than cotton alone and also provides cooling and comfort. The aqua ribbon is near identical to a famous Italian frame builder and cycling star - you get the picture. And, to keep with our tradition a black version is forthcoming.

IL Campionissimo.

We received our new batch of Colombian ribbon from Klaus of cyclinginquistion. Unique because Klaus gets the ribbon from Colombia and ships it to us for placement on his custom caps due soon.

Working from home is wonderful...

It's working well!

The Boar Of The Ardennes Is Sharpening His Fangs

Michael Matthews, Phil Gil and Tony Gallopin.

One of the enjoyable aspects of cycle racing is watching an old hero return to his winning ways. That's what happened to Philippe Gilbert today as he won the one-day classic Brabantse Pijl. He previously won this race as during his magical 2011. Now, the Ardennes trio of races are upcoming. And, something tells me that the Boar of the Ardennes is just sharpening his fangs.

This is big for my morale, and helps ahead of the Ardennes Classics. We will have to wait until LBL to make our conclusions. If I win today and not in the upcoming three races, it's not a good classics season.

Phil Gil is back!

TGIF: The Hell Of The North

I will be up early Sunday morning to watch my favorite race of the season... the 112th Hell of the North.

Who will survive the over 6 hours of 51kms of cobbles punishment, conquer the wind, choking rain or dust, punctures and mechanicals? I'll be watching and wish all the finishing riders can win the cobble stone trophy (above). It wouldn't be a race without one winner...  it's going to fun to watch!
