http://formosacovers.com/ . . .bought one for my Iron on Amazon for $30, came with a cable & lock for the bottom, & has covered air vents for wind. I've only had it a month but I like it so far. I've never heard of a bike tipping over due to wind+cover.

My wife's scooter blew over a couple of months ago in strong winds. Ok, ok, it's a Vespa, but blow over it did. I had put it on the centre stand to make sure it was secure. Idiot.

I was looking to invest in one from CycleShell - a little pricey, but looks to be one of the best on the market.
