front view, with an amazing backdrop :D
You might have already noticed a few additions from time to time around the basket. The cute little bag that the Frenchie has been sporting in the last few weeks is a beautiful little bag, made by the Chicago-based company PoCampo.
Many thanks to Jamie in SF (let's ride soon!!) and Maria in Chicago, for connecting with me. The fabric is a peachy nectar color tough to put up with my abrupt clunky basket and the moody weather in the city. I am not a huge rain storm fanatic, so I have not drenched the bag per se but it has kept up to foggy misty San Francisco standards.
If you troll around with me, you know I like carrying a first aid kit, coffee mug, and a ton of other stuff that Im not sure how it fits into my timbuk2 little bag, but this clutch-basket bag, is the best solution for just taking the usual needs and the camera. I don't have a fancy phone, but it has a slim compartment for that outside for easy reaching which doesn't fit my camera, but there is a small compartment inside that does. Anyways, I love the flexible use of it and it has gotten a bunch of compliments around town. What I'm also excited about is that it looks just as good on my steel beauty, my road bike the Smurfette. Which I plan to take out more now that my knee feels a whole lot better.
Anyways, here are some pictures. Cheers!

Where to next
I was rolling solo so I had to improvise with some tripod-esque moves on a high benches or flat surface. Not the most touristy time of the year so most people around here are running, always running working out or running off somewhere, who knows. Who needs a workout when a beautiful steel machine on wheels keeps me on check and includes many nasty steep hills which always regard you, once you get to the top –can only mean that you will get a beautiful view and get a fun downhill ride.Where to next
