Wicker rear bike basket (CB1 (Petersfield) Mill Road)
My existing wicker rear bicycle basket has lasted about 30+ years and now needs replacing. I've searched and searched for one in Cambridge, but found nowhere that sells them. Front baskets, yes; rear metal baskets, yes; rear wicker baskets, no. I wondered if anyone had a wicker rear bicycle basket lurking in the back of their shed or garage. If anyone knows of a shop which sells them, I'd also appreciate a message. Thanks for any help you can give. Richard.
