While I try to make a balanced assessment of idyllic lifestyle pursuits, the emphasis here is surely on cycling. As well as numerous benefits, constantly addressed, I find that cycling lets me engage with a mythical Golden Age of delivering Hovis on cobbled streets and picnicking with gingham and wicker. To illustrate the point, have a look at the wonderful Old Bike Museum, and online museum charting the history of early 'safety bikes'. Its well worth a skim, but this bike (above) is a personal fave.
