My wife and I put a windblocker on Da MOOSE

and it works pretty well.  Not perfect but it cuts

down the air flow a BUNCH.  Nice for the cold 

sunny fall days here. 



It is made of a tublar frame with a nylon mesh 

material mounted on it.



It is small so the top can even be put up with 

it sitting up.  It folds neatly down on the rear

deck and doesn't even get in the way of that
