Bike picnics are just great, and thanks to London's pitted and potholed roads, that cream in your pannier will be nicely whipped by the time you arrive. (I'm not joking: it works - try it.)
So at Camberwell College School of Arts's student show last Friday, which like so many student shows nowadays has at least one bike-related project, we were pleased to see this rear-rack wicker box (right) that opens out into a picnic table (below).
Perhaps the next task for Eva, its designer, is to modify the standard bottle cage so it can hold, and keep chilled, say a nice bottle of crisp, peachy Albariño. Not Cava though. We've tried that, and it doesn't react to vibrations as felicitously as cream.
