Just wait until the local paparazzi get a gander at you.
I've learned a lot with Dark Aero so I'm going to apply it to this one. I wonder if I should call it Light Aero? I've replaced the plywood deck with an aluminum sheet to make it lighter and more durable. The fiberglass body can be removed by pulling the 4 bolts that hold it to the frame. I'm thinking of making a shopping cart body to slap on there now and then.
