Hi Camcroft. Try raising the jockey wheel so the unit has a slight slant and put a couple of plastic balls at the top to raise the cover a little off the unit. See how that goes

Slanting as suggested and sweep any residual water off with a sweeping brush.  A lot will blow away with wind anyway.

Put a childs ball in the middle under the cover.  In reality, the water will not cause any problems as long as the cover does not have any holes in.  If stored outside, some choose to fit a tarp or an additional winter cover to keep the thing clean, but they aren't essential.

A lot of people have said on here about raising the jockey wheel to gain run-off.

I found with my Cruiser that if I lowered it right down I got a better angle for run off and the nose was less likely to catch people out wandering by.

Thoughts??

I lower the hitch so that there is a slope and also so that i can step over it easily as its in a tight spot, also chuck a big sweet jar under the cover to form a bit of a peak.
