Beauty and Bread
On the way home from work I stopped at the Boalsburg Farmer’s Market to grab some things for dinner. All my choices fit under the seat or in the top case save for the long baguette. Can’t believe in all the years I’ve been riding and getting groceries I’ve not faced the baguette dilemma — how do you handle the classic long bread?
Having no beret didn’t help. I remembered the famous image of a man and young boy riding down a tree lined road with a baguette strapped across the back of their bicycle. After searching the scooter for a few seconds I realized the front rack not only is capable of hauling watermelons, it can carry bread as well.
Can there be an expression of elegant Vespa utility than that?
