            That rocked once - the cap and the Düsseldorf cycling weekend

            We had fun, cursed, suffered a little, drove fast and slow, cheered loudly, got angry and were happy to receive big praise. A great weekend with cycling, old and new friends, lots of emotions and...

                The hat and the one gang

                In flat, compact Düsseldorf, changing gears is more of a superfluous gadget than a necessity for most city trips, at least if you cycle regularly. We at the cap are big friends of bikes ourselves,...

                        When we make cinema in the cap, it's quite an improvised affair. But last Friday we all experienced that exactly that can also have charm. RAD RACE, Hardbrakers & Marvin Beranek at movie night. The...
