Brillant! Are you going to make a couple to order? I'd certainly put the money up. Let us know - nice, well thought out job.

All ready now, just need to work out how to pedal faster!! See you Sunday.

I'm booked up. Will be the first outing for the 182 since I got it a year ago. If you are there Adam I've put the second seat in!

Demon Tweeks do a five window kit for £275 + vat = £330
