The Old Bike

Went for a wee walk this evening and parked my bottom on a seat just across the road for a bit of contemplation/thinking time. Photographed away for a while getting bits and pieces then I turned around and look what I saw........

An old bike with an even older beer crate on the back sitting next to the flash new mountain bike in the bike rack. I got to thinking again about how we have a society that is only to happy to cast aside old things and replace them with new as in this image here as well. Both these bicycles do the job required of them but how many of us would choose the bike on the right even though it comes with a very well planned storage system...................

Is it time to go and buy a film camera???
