Vendredi à vélo - that's a 'mori'

Spotted this bike in St.Andrews and thought the finish looked interesting - closer inspection revealed more of the deadly detail - how did they do that?

Vendredi à vélo - popular Provence

As we  harvesting the grapes on Saturday there were many cyclists and walkers who passed us on the popular track alongside the vines.Some were even encouraged,by me, to sample the experience but sadly only wanted a photo shoot!

Vendredi à vélo - blast from the past

 

Captured these this time last year in Villes-sur-Auzon down in Provence. 

Vendredi à vélo - 'I've been all around the world'

 

When I first spotted this bicycle here in France I thought it would make a good subject for 'Vendredi à vélo',I liked the way it had been sprayed the one colour all over but on closer inspection realized it was in fact totally made from cane!

What a fabulous thing!

The owners had brought it over from the UK but I wonder if its origins were perhaps a bit further away?

This pic. from Miriam Kelsey on Pinterest might suggest it was originally from Bali!

Vendredi à vélo - boxing clever...

 

Vendredi à vélo - 'droughtful' floral display!

Vendredi à vélo - well framed.

Spotted yesterday at the start of our first collective 'short walk' of the year around Le Grand-Pressigny. It was good to be back among our walking friends.

Vendredi à vélo - family fun on a bicycle run.

Wonder if there can be a return to families being able to take advantage of the cycle hire at the nearby Haute-Touche zoopark in 2021? Let's hope so.🤞

 

Vendredi à vélo - bike box

 

Love this practical bike box. One of our neighbours uses it to take items to and from his potager which is a bit away from his house.

A woolly bicycle for Vendredi à vélo...

Recycling plant?

 

Last August after a walk around the village of Pussigny we spotted these bicycles in a garden just outside Antogny-le-Tillac and thought, they must have a lot of kids! Was intrigued enough to stop - a look over their large gates revealed this!

One for Vendredi à vélo - from days when we were allowed to travel.

 

One for 'Vendredi a velo' - not difficult to snap a bicycle in Amsterdam - scary to think this was way back in 2012!
