Next year I have considered buying a Birkenstock comet and going partly faired.

Aren't Birkenstocks about a squillion pounds each?

About £6.8k last time I checked
It's either that for my next bike or a Trisled avatar which after shipping etc will cost about the same.

I got mine from TKMax for about £20, they're a very comfy pair of sandals  Approve

I made the homebuilders trophy. It's the one like a little silver Zeppelin. I also made the junior, ladies and arm powered trophies. I think the wire one is probably unfaired. I think Tina Brandenburg made it. We also have a newcomers trophy and 'The Unfortunate Scotsman' trophy. If he wasn't winning I might suggest Mike B. for that one. Overheating bearings is certainly unusual.


The wire-wound SWB-shaped trophy is the Unfortunate Scotsman Trophy.
