    I'm planning on biking the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route this summer (see sig for details). Since almost the entire route is on gravel roads and devoid of motor vehicles, I was thinking of ditching the helmet and wearing a ballcap instead. I want to wear an orange one to match my bike.

    I have a Texas hat, but it's acrylic, not so great for heat and sweat. I'm looking for one that:

    1. Does well for heat and exercise
    2. Is mostly orange
    3. Is adjustable. Tight for windy days, comfortably loose when it's not.

    Recommendations?

    When I used to go biking regularly, I wore an oversized white bandana with burnt orange small "TEXAS" prints all over it under a white helmet. I still wear it when I work in the yard. In fact, a few weeks ago, a guy in a car stopped, rolled down his window and yelled at me, "how much do you charge?" in Spanish. Good laugh.
