Thanks for the S2ki birthday wishes...... well spotted I hadn't noticed.

The sun makes my head hurt whether I wear sunbloc or not, so I need to wear a hat. I also find sunglasses are too dark to see the road properly at times.
I am 5'10, and have no "lift off" problems with the s2ki cap (as supplied by Roadie ) worn in the conventional way, even at speeds of 100 (kph).
The only problem is that the back of my neck gets burnt, so secret weapon is a Tilley Hat (Swiss Army Knife of hats ) - you have to fold the sides up to stop buffeting, and it is advised to use the neckcord, but it provides the best protection from the sun IMHO.
