Sounds like a pretty straightforward program to me. Why not just do it?
    template<class Iter> class Cyclic_iterator {
    public:
Cyclic_Iterator(Iter b, Iter e): begin(b), end(e), it(b) { }
Cyclic_Iterator& operator++() {
     ++it;
     if (it == end)
         it = begin;
     return *this;
        }
// and so on -- it's up to you to fill in the rest
    private:
        Iter begin, end, it;
    };
