ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a fairing for a bicycle of the type having a front wheel, a forked steering column and a pair of handle bars, the fairing comprising a shroud, the shroud having a leading edge and a pair of walls extending rearwardly and outwardly on respective sides of the leading edge, the leading edge extending from a region near the handle bars to a region near the lowermost edge of the front wheel, the shroud having a sufficient height to shield the head of a rider in `one` position and a lower edge that is sufficiently low to shield the front wheel, thereby reducing the aerodynamic friction encountered by the bicycle.
