Cycling caps

I'm a recent convert to the old style cotton caps. Not simply for aesthetic reasons (although they DO look good) but because they are practical. They keep the sun off your head and stop the sweat running into your eyes. They do the latter very effectively too - much more so than the pads inside a h*lm*t. A good example of this was on the Winnats ride the other evening. In the past I've been stopping on long or hilly rides to wipe dripping sweat from my sunglasses but with the cap on - not a problem at all.
