This is why I made the suggestion for your fork. This is a cropped pic from my build thread (pg 6)
I'm Canadian-American.

@Troyminator , you have till 10 pm Central time in the USA to have your 'Getter up in the Finished Thread. Maybe @LukeTheJoker could put a link to his famous 'countdown clock' in the Discussion thread....to remind everyone! What say you mate?

To bad you don't have one of those plastic grocery store baskets to keep with the theme.

Wicker...Maybe painted....(tic-toc)

Nice idea!

Dang!!
Forgot that I do have one of those baskets! It's green. Now where is it hiding? I'm sure it's full of assorted bicycle parts, lol

How about a 'kiddie ride' for out front? We always had a mechanical horse or motorcycle outside our grocery stores. And, we might get to ride it, cost 5 cents, if we were good in the store.
That was our entertainment in the late '50s ....

Unless I have one in one of my parts bins (which I don't), i don't think I'd be able to find one of those in the 3 hours we left before the deadline, lol

So the new and improved, more grocery store-ish detachable, wheeled front basket in a fashionable, bargain hunting, buy-that-meat-product-on-sale-1-day-before-the Best Before-date green hue. Coloured matched to be suitable for the Christmas shopping season as well.

I can't forget to mention the catchy mud flap/license plate

And that's a wrap, I think. Off to the Finished Bikes page...
Hold up, not quite yet!

That's a huge basket, and it has wheels. You truly built a grocery getter.

A cooler than dangit award competitor.
