    Question for a friend. This (younger) female friend had a "brilliant" idea (aren't they all) and
    has sought my wisdom (mistake) and I don't want to steer the person wrong...as I have made more
    than a few bad calls before (re: home computers and pocket calculators will NEVER catch on, so
    don't invest in those toys...whoops). Anyway her idea (Summer job idea) was to sell Icy Cold
    "Bottled Water and Fresh?? Lemonade" beside a popular Bike Path. My 1st thought was "Gatorade"
    would sell better for Mtb and Performance cyclists. That when I ride I like a bottle of cold
    Perrier, a friend said he prefers a glass of tap water...drinks half and pours other half over
    his head (the guy is just plain weird). Anyway the weekend question would be: when on a bike path
    (summer/heat) and you encounter someone flogging Icy Cold liquid refreshments a) would you stop
    to buy and b) what would you (prefer) to drink?? as for Bent content, her plan is to raise enough
    $ to buy a trike
    P.S. keep it clean, she wants a printout of any replies TIA

    In my city and in yours it is illegal on several fronts to do this. She should look up relevant laws
    before this venture.

    Maybe I should cut the fairing shorter.

    Seems to me this is your best option unless it really doesn't bother you to ride looking through the
    fairing. Maybe Karl could do it.

    Come to think of it I've had solid coroplast fairings on previous bents...


    Speaking as another Coroplast user, I can also say that the opaqueness of the fairings has never
    been a problem. If I put a windshield on them, it's strictly for looks, not for looking through.
    I've found myself wondering if FF will be making carbon fairings for SWBs, perhaps with a better
    shape than the current offerings?

    John that would be awesome! I would love to see one on the front of my Bacchetta. But I don't know,
    I'm thinking FF is really into LWB's and that might be all he'll concentrate on for now....guess
    we'll just have to wait and see. Lynn
