In the spirit of Spring, I decided my bike deserves a total makeover – I am planning on pimping it up with accessories which I think only the Dutch have. I'm considering ordering the bag shown on the photo above - it's cute, it's soooo Dutch and it's not too garish...
And of course creative bike accessories is a perfect topic for a series of blog posts too - here comes Creative Cycling!
So today we’re looking at the double “fietstassen”, i.e. bike bags which you fasten to the rear side of your bike. They are a great invention indeed – you can transport lots of stuff in them with no effort whatsoever – bags with shopping, potted plants, flowers or even your laptop!
In the Netherlands the most common brands of bike bags include Bazil, New Look and Kitsch Kitchen – all of the designs below come from their website. Shops such as Kruidvat, Blokker or Hema also store usually short collections of lower quality bike bags – much cheaper, but equally colourful ;-) Check out their websites for even more attractive designs!
