Time Off On The Horizon

On my recent Frfuggitivi ride, conversation was about our cycling cap business and Matt asked me, "Is this what I do full-time?" 

Yes it is. And, we're noticing our little business is becoming busier especially with custom cap orders.  

In fact, the workload has increased so much that we find ourselves working every day. Our plan is to catch some sun this summer and, perhaps, take some time off. Even though we may have to work on some weekends to fulfill production, we will keep business emails to Monday thru Friday only. 

Thanks to all of our customers for your continued support and... keep on riding.

Today I received a very cool 3cross Brewing Company tee from Dave Howland of Worcester, MA. He is the cyclist/nano brewer who successfully surpassed his goal of raising funds for his Kickstarter campaign. We are excited to be part of his crowd funding project - another first for us. Carolle and I are now busy working on his custom 3cross Brewing Company cycling caps. I can't show any photos but, I can say they are starting to look fantastic!

Our custom cycling cap orders are growing.

As our business is growing we're learning to adapt with a new change...

We're currently involved with three custom cap orders, at times a juggling act. For sure it can be  challenging and actually a lot of fun. So, we plan a productive weekend ahead!

FRFuggitivi & Giro: Italian Soul!

Custom embroidered FRFuggitivi cap

Yesterday's FRFuggitivi ride was a cold, rain soaked outing but at our well planned coffee stop I proudly handed over two custom FRFfuggitivi caps to Mario and Brian. It came in handy for Brian. He commented on how well the cap - notably the brim protected his eyes from the pelting rain. Not surprisingly, the cycling cap also works extra duty during times of inclement weather keeping the head warm. Our group didn't ride under our typical Italian rules (no riding when raining) but we did ride like hardcore Italian racers. If we were in Italy, I would like to think that the Tifosi would cheer us on. 

Today, the Giro d'ltalia is a rest day before the final week of high mountains (i.e. Stelvio & Zoncolan) ... so let's admire this collection of maglia rosas!
