When I was a kid, one reason Sundays were great was the fact that you could ride your bike - not
just the two blocks to school, but all over the neighbourhood and to your friends' houses. And I always wanted a woven basket on my bike. I thought it would look much cooler (or peachy keen!-as we used to say) than the metal one. But never in my wildest imagination did I think of an
entire woven bike. Wicker, above, from Jedi
RC's Flicker page and the magnificent
rattan number, below, for which I can not find a credit. If you know please let me know.
Now my Sundays involve beach walks, late brunches and lots of art making - something else that was beyond my wildest
imaginings on those Sunday afternoons 50 years ago.
