I have been looking at the flow of traffic (or lack of) within york but also outside of york, and thinking about the methods we use to get from A to B. It seems to me the best and almost definitely fastest way to do this in york which essentially has one road through it is on a bike, avoiding the constant traffic jam that is york city centre. I then discovered the craze of dekochari within japan (deko - decoration, chari- bike), which is a very literal link between the bike and art. It comes from dekotora which are Japans celebrated art trucks, and dekochari is basically for dekotora enthusiasts who are too young to drive. They instead set about making there bicycle look as much like a truck as possible, these people are almost definitely crazy but I admire them for it.
