I have seen soft cases with a long shoulder strap that looked really good, I
believe that they were specially made. They weren’t very complecated. It does
depend on the size of your wheel, my 26" can be a little bit of a pain some
times, as the wheel just won’t fit in the new British Rail luggage racks.

I met a guy in Oxford (in a pub, while I was half baked) who wrode a 20" uni
delivering dispacted in Oxford as a living, my friend pointed out that he did
well because he didn’t have the same problem as other riders as he did not lock
his uni up! he obviosly believed that the theives could not ride. As a side
point he was Fast!!! we went for a wiz and I had to really go for it to stay
with him on my 26"
