    Yeh, I remember being over there in the 90s and seeing weather aprons for the first time - almost every bike had them fitted. There were none in Ireland at the time and even now you don't see too many - almost exclusively only on step-throughs. I bought an Urbano one myself a few years ago when I was on the bike all the time, but my job changed and I never got to fit it to see how good they'd be at keeping the weather off me. I'm only commuting now so the muffs along with a good rain suit are enough for me.

    A city that understands the effectiveness of motorised 2 wheel transport. Not on the agenda over here.
