Stuff we find on rides thread

Not sure if this counts, about 5 years ago, one Sunday morning I looked out of my kitchen window, to discover somebody had dumped an old skanky mattress on the TOP of my little car, the poor old aerial was all squished underneath!

One phone call and the local Council removed it, almost immediately.

Now THAT'S bizarre... who does things like that?

This morning as the sun was coming up, a big wave crashed sending a beautiful seaspray in the air about 3 feet above my head (riding on the 101 freeway along the pacific ocean, in semi darkness) In my gazing at it in awe, I found something sharp that gave me a flat. When I walked to the off ramp to fix it, I found a commercial type cooks apron. DH uses those to work on the bike. It came home under my jacket after I fixed the flat! Tokie

Now you guys have got a lot to answer for, especially Biciclista's story of the small doll.

I seem to be scouring the road for what might be laying about.

Well, yesterday when I went out for my 12 mile ride in the pouring rain and wind, I noticed little NoBody.



Not sure why but I thought it was quite sad, once a cute doll with an owner that loved her but now, nobody.

I keep seeing a bag of shop rags on the side of the road. The thin white towel type. I pedal on by, I don't need someone's possibly used shop towels. I wonder when the juvenile probation crew will be by? They usually keep this road nice and tidy.

I found a litter of kittens playing beside the road. When I stopped to investigate, some of them chased me. I could have stuffed 3 of them in my bike jersey, but the husband nixed that idea.
