They say that more convertible cars per head are sold in Britain than any other European country, and when you experience our capricious weather it’s clear why; when one appears, we milk every ray of sunshine for all it’s worth. But while open-top motoring is all well and good, it can’t compare with the visceral experience of a summer’s day that you get on a bicycle. And because the opportunity for picnics in our climate are far and few between, a new type of mobile picnic table and hamper that’s carried on the a cycle rack promises to allow you to enjoy al fresco eating at a moment’s notice.

According to the designer of the Bloon picnic basket, Jeriël Bobbe:

Nothing like a summer picnic, but sitting down on wet, prickly or sandy grounds might be uncomfortable. This basket offers the perfect solution to that problem. It holds a table for two, chairs and plenty of space to store your food, plates, cups and cutlery. Easy to carry on your bike to any idyllic dinner location: have a seat and enjoy a lovely meal in nature. Life is a picnic after all.
