I do need to work on filling the gap between the trunk and my back to eliminate the resulting turbulence. I'm thinking some foam attached to the front cover. I'll post some pix after I make it.
I know even less about this topic than most, but I have seen the spandex "socks" used to enclose the sides of streamliners. Why not make a spandex vest that zips to the trunk, you put your arms through the holes, zip up the front, and just like that, no gap!

That sounds all kinds of awkward!
