It looks sooo (maybe that should be sew… sorry) "easy". Mind you, if you are a dab hand with a sewing machine or you know someone else who is this could be a nice way of getting yourself some designer cycling headwear. If not, it's always interesting watching people make stuff.

There are a few ads to get through at the start and in the middle, and hey! we are actually going to power road.cc by bike (at some point 1 ) to live up to our Pedal Powered motto… might need to get a bit fitter first mind. Oh and there's some other interesting stuff right at the end. Including some stuff about the Ginger Ninjas - a group I've always wanted to know more about… well, always is probably stretching things a bit.

Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.

@Tony I do not have the skill to create such clothes myself. I could not even make socks https://www.am-cycling.com/product-category/cycling-socks/

Depending on the size of your head.
