My daughter is on her new trike trailer now, and after some heavy rain she had a face full from my back wheel. i returned home and made a quick and nasty windscreen/fairing out of some poles and a plastic bag...

Gave it some thought, and today made her this one...

Works a treat, but sounds like I have Rolf Harris as a passenger, over any bumps!

Blimey, I thought the quick and nasty one looked good!

That's very neat indeed, well done.

Thanks, the first attempt was made out of garage rubbish...left over flag poles, and my daughters ball pool bag...and lots of cable ties. I just wanted something that could be taken off and refitted more easily.

I looked at the streamers etc but thought this would fit better, and cost £20 for the polycarbonate and £10 for the rest.

Didn't quite get the shape right, but will try harder if there is a next time...well I could always do one for the sprint!

Good work mate. Bit lazy not to fit wipers though.

Cheers,

no need for wipers as now it's fitted, it will not rain

I wondered why those bacon sandwiches were so good.
