    I say right of the cap, on the front it won't be that visible unless you are going in the other direction and trying to read that at closing speeds at or over 40mph will be tricky
    Shirley it'd be better on the left, for all to see as you blast past.

    I'm not going to be trying to read what it says as I am being overtaken, but at lights it might be some motivation

    They can't do anything on the peak for the wool caps as its embroidered. If we went for one of the others then we could do a printed design on the bill. Maybe one for the summer. In the mean time its the body of the cap or nothing.

    So the logo is likely to be over one of the ears? Therefore message will be read by those you overtake (on left ear), by those that overtake you (right ear), or the injuns (wild front ear)?

    Not fussed really, but do still quite like the idea of different messages on each side if that is possible.
    Nobody told me we had a communication problem

    Removed myself from spreadsheet as I don't do wool. Hats off to WR for doing the organising.

    That'd be fine if she was shaved, wool allergy. More to the point, why do you have such pictures?

    Is there a picture of these available so that I know what to look out for and do any of you guys have any thoughts on which side looks the best so I can plan which side to pass you on? :lol:

    The caps look like this. Most people went for black or grey but there are a few others

    I meant to submit the order last night but I was so knackered after my training ride that I got home, ate dinner and then went to bed. The order will be going in tonight so hopefully I'll have a date by the end of the week.

    It is ALL about plaid.
    What do you mean you think 64cm is a big frame?

    I was thinking that but it wasxn't my ears that suffered this morning and they usually do, any colder and I think they will though.

    Wore my Giro Merino Cap, for the first time, this morning.

    It was great. Warm, breathable and flaps kept my ears warm without annoying me. Hope the Waltz ones are similar.

    What was the final design and where is it going to be on the cap?

    Text over the right ear, for when your scalps pull up next to you at the traffic lights and look at you in awe :twisted:
    This should be visible even when wearing a helmet.
