I also remember going to picnics sitting on the roof of an Austin Cambridge Estate or whatever the Estate version was called, Seat belts were a thing of the future!
Nowdays we can't do things like that and everyone expects more from what we have.

Don't ask me how but somehow my mother and 4 of us young kids used to go from Tonbridge to Camber Sands with my Father astride a BSA, with sidecar.
He used to pull me on a pushbike most of the way to Tunbridge Wells hanging on to a rope tied to his Velocette motorbike thingy (water cooled with built in leg guards)
