Cadence

Cadence is drawn head-on over the bars: hands on the hoods, legs turning. The steady rhythm of a long morning ride; the word itself is a rider's name for pedal turns per minute. It is machine embroidered in six thread colours within a 10 × 10 cm area, on a garment-dyed cotton tee, a crewneck or a hoodie in a relaxed fit, or on a 10-litre cotton tote. The face is blank, so the figure can be yours or a gift for someone you know lives this sport. It is the only figure in Cycling so far, and one of forty in People of the Game.
