I finished up my tailbox this weekend on my "corovelo" and it definitely paid off. This morning was officially the fastest commute to school ever at 17.0mph moving average. I can't imagine how much quicker it would of been without the winds.
Saw another commuter for a change, which was awesome. I have seen him before. I merged onto the road that he was on a little ahead of him. I probably gave him a little motivation to push it just like he gave my some last time I saw him in front of me
Success! Congratulations Chalupa! I am experimenting with attaching overlapping vinyl scales on my spandex top cover (trying to block moisture and stiffen it but still be elastic and breathing) but only got it half finished this weekend. Even so, the light rain this morning didn't penetrate, so I'm going to apply the concept to my side handlebar covers which did get soaked.
DM, that's a beautiful machine. Can you show us a front and back view?
