I wonder if that's a local expression then?
That's ALL I've ever heard 'em called!
anyone else out there use the term "coffee covers"
(we mostly use them at the coffee shop... LOL!)There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

I've heard them called cafe' covers.

I call them coffee shop caps. I think the jist is that you can snap 'em on to run into a coffee shop for a cuppa during a ride! I use them on my Speedplay X-2 cleats; can't live without them!

Wow, I didn't know that either. If I think about it, I have always walked on my cleats without those. Who knew.
Thanks for the info.Havala
