As you may know, Team ACC heads to Wales next week for the RAS Cymru 5-day stage race. There's a prologue as well as a TTT so i'm after all the help i can get against the clock

If anyone has a pointy hat (proper safety one, not just a faring) that they wouldn't mind lending for the duration (1-5 July) it would be very much appreciated.
Who knows, your generosity could make all the difference between 1st and 2nd (or more likely 41st or 42nd

You should have read that rulebook I sent you! - no pointy hats allowed

I did, but i read that as no farings i.e. it has to be a proper crash hat too, no?

i am not sure what it exactly means - are there crash-approved aero helmets?:
[quote]Riders
o must wear all four numbers for the time trial i.e. 2 arm and 2 on the back of
jersey
o may use time-trial adapted bikes for the time trial.
o must wear an approved crash helmet (NOT aero-helmets)
Do you think they will measure our saddle to bb distance? (UCI = 50mm min)
[quote]STAGE 1: Individual Time Trial
- 14 -
o Both cycle and helmet MUST conform to BC and UCI Technical Regulations
o Riders spotted drafting will both incur an appropriate time penalty.
