Ditto here - same method for the everflex version of the hood. I once wanted a hood envelope like Dave's - until I saw someone desperately struggling to fit one, and that was a dealer! Occasionally on a speedy ride the wind will get into it and it will partially unfold, so I have thought about adding some unobtrusive black velcro straps to go around the whole thing when folded. The roll of pipe insulation idea is brilliant - thanks IcePack I will try that.

Lessons on hood folding are somewhat redundant today, been over to Southam this morning and it was miserable

Pipe insulation is a good idea! Someone used to sell velcro'd straps in mohair because my Roadster came with a pair. May have been Simmonds.

Such expertise at folding. Have you thought of applying for the job of captain of the England cricket team Dave ?

Dave, pictures great as usual. I bought my car from a dealer, he had fitted a new ever flex hood, but clearley did not know how to fold it as there were pinch marks appearing. Iceman the pipe is a good idea- thanks. All the best Tony
