Dependent on how much of the trike you want to cover up.
Perhaps I live in a low crime area - well yeh, I do but the only bit of my
trike I cover up is the seat and joystick assembly (Windcheetah) on the
basis that I ride it happily in the pouring rain and so the mech can get as
wet as it likes - as long as the seat is dry for my bum!
I use an XL rucksack waterproof cover for that. Stretched out it fits the
seat and joystick perfectly and the elasticated edges keep it tightly in
place - and discourage any of my students from too close an inspection.
Also it fits easily into pannier pockets for cover-ups while out and about,
one good shake and most of the water is easily shed.

David,
I think you could look at a light weight Wave Runner cover, not the heavy
canvas one but one that was of lighter material. I think with just a little
tayloring and putting it on backwards it might cover the trike up nicely. i
was thinking of something similar but have been lucky with either being able
to take it inside or having covered parking to put it in.
Happy triking
Don L

Howdy,
I will be getting a new trike and I will have to leave it outside when
I'm at work (it doesn't rain often in Dallas, but ...). The occasional
sprinkle and because I work at a Health Club it would be nice to cover it to
keep little & some big fingers from messing with it. Any ideas - I have
used a lawn mower cover for my 'delta' trike but it didn't fit real well and
it was ... comber some?



Later,
David

PS. Make it a GREAT Day!
