Riding my bike around

I have a very old cream Linus Mixte 3 that weighs about ten thousand pounds, but dang she gets me around. Add my front basket and a portable rear bottle basket (that I have thanks to a giveaway on @Kate Arends Peters' blog in 2012), and I can get a great picnic to the park or beach with ease. The only problem is that the Ocean Parkway bike path has some absolutely massive craters, and once, everything I was transporting jumped out of the baskets yard-sale style. But only my phone broke and only a little, so that was fine.
