Paul, Thanks for the link. Now... for those unfamiliar with a true Derny, take a look at both the driver's position and the construction of the rear fender. Both are meant to provide an extra measure of protection for the following cyclist: the former from the wind, and the latter from tire overlap. Cheers, Fred Rednor - Arlington, Virginia (USA)
