Do you always cover your Al's wheels with the wheel cover? Since the cover fits just perfectly it gets annoying to have that extra step each time I fold it but I also don't want to get that tan quilted part dirty.

Do I have any other alternatives or does a different method of covering the wheels work out for any of you who own the AL?

I generally do use the wheelcovers, but if I'm in a hurry I don't.
You could just throw a towel over the wheels if you wanted to.
Or just use nothing and clean the canopy if you need to...

I don't use the wheel cover. Too much of a PITA. I am just careful when folding.

RunnerDuck: have you been sitting under a rock? :rotflmao:

Just kidding :love5:, al is Maclaren model Albert Thurston, the hype became when Gilt got them for sale for a steal (considering the look of the stroller and the accessories it came with), less than 200 with shipping. There was A LOT of talk about him on the boards :).
