The Bare Necessities: shelter for cyclists.

Arrive, rest, leave. Stop to catch a breath in your journey. Feel free to stay for the night, or leave whenever you want. Without fuss. 
You may see it the next day, it may even accompany you along your route. Somehow, its shape is familiar, like one of those vineyard shelters you have seen here and there, it gives a sense of continuity in the landscape, with a certain décalage of time.  Under the shape of the house, nothing protects you anymore: separated from the ground and under a roof, this no longer means being sheltered. No walls, no furniture, just a ladder… and then upstairs. 
Climb, have a seat… or lay down. It’s luminous in here.  You can even open the windows if it’s too hot or if you want to see the river without filters… when the night falls, light up a torch, make your presence visible from the outside.
