Stuff we find on rides thread

Sunday I saw a guy on a moderately decked out TT bike with TT helmet and believe me, a screaming yellow, shiny, full-body condom. I mean a full body suit. But what the hey was he doing on a ROAD wearing that thing. Doesn't it belong on the track?

I thought I was going bonkers.

I wonder if he had just got something in his TT kit and was testing it out to see how the whole ensemble worked.
Over here its not too unusual to see TT gear on the road as we have no track and our races are all run on the road. But usually people leave their body suits for race day only!

Several times, I have come across the odd shoe on the side of the road. How does one shoe get there? Did the person not notice? Did they just run around with one shoe for the rest of the day?

Other than single shoes, we see bungie ties and some kind of white nylon ties that must come off of feed sacks or something (can't figure out why else there would be so many lying around the road in our area). I've almost gotten to the point where I don't automatically think, "akkk snake" when I see them -- almost Oh, and lots of road kill
