What happen to thrown water bottles?

[anyuser]

i picked up 16 at the Vuelta this year!! There were motorcyclists and cars driving along picking up all the bottles they could find.

i also have some 'biodegradeable' ones from the Vuelta from 2 years ago and they are still usable, no signs of degrading. But then again they dont see much sunlight on my rides in the UK.

Possibly an Anpost rider trying out a different delivery method/

It'd be quicker and more reliable than some courier services I've used.

I thought the TOB had green zones.
