Workplaces for non-workers

A growing number of my friends and acquaintances do not, strictly speaking, "work." Some are retired after a long, steady slog, perhaps the last generation to enjoy a pension. And some never really got the hang of 9-to-5 living. A common thread among them is a fierce dedication to all things bicycle.

My buddy Geno sends this image of the cyclist's workstation, invented by Store MUU in Japan. The high-design concept would provide public furniture that becomes a desk or cafe table with the introduction of your bicycle, doubling as secure bike parking. Why not?
