Milan Velomobile Mk2 number 43 is now with owner after an inaugral 40+ mile journey/test ride. I did some escort duties although we did almost have a disaster in first ten seconds of journey. Arellcat has got a nice pic (not sure if it sells velomobiling though!). Once away from Marchmont on the A8 it was a lot safer with predicatble heavy traffic(!). Cars overtook as if it was a bigger vehicle. Of course they wouldn't approve - partly because I was on a pedal bike following. the bike paths aren't really useable for the Milan as it works better at a steady speed.The aero advantage was evident as I had to put Fuego into highest gear and out the bike as low as possible to keep it small.
