What can you carry on your bicycle?

This is a post I have been planning since September, but I've been waiting to complete my photo collection.

I am constantly amazed by the items that people manage to carry on their bicycles in Kenya. Most of the items below would not fit in the trunk of my toyota!! However, one lesson I have learned this year is that if a person only has limited resources and money, he/she manages to improvise in fantastic ways to become as efficient as possible.

Soooo here we go!

Grass for thatching


A table, a bucket and a few bags of goods


A child (where is his helmet???)


Sugarcane


bundles of wood


And my favorite....
A bicycle!
