Now theres an obvious solution, the bigger question is why the hell havent I ever thought of itTake a small sandwich bag or suchlike to put the empty wrappers in.

They are biodegradable but take a lot longer to degrade than other fruit and can look unsightly; some folk take serious offence to chucking them but I must admit I throw them away 99% of the time like you.I chuck banana skins, usually try to make sure they go into some thick vegetation. Being biodegradable I've always assumed this was ok, thoughts?

I stopped to sort out an unscheduled deflation yesterday, it must have been a common spot for this because there was a pile of tubes lying on the verge, i'd hazard a guess at 6 or 7! Needless to say, my tube went into the pannier and was repaired at my desk during my lunch break.I often see discarded inner tubes along the roadside, obviously from cyclists who don't repair punctures and don't care about litter. If I can stop I pick them up to repair and use myself.
Tricky one this,fruit leftovers always get tossed to the fields and I cant see a problem with that at all. paper goes in the back pocket the tricky ones for me are gel packets, as they tend to be a bit sticky / messy I dont want to shove them in my pockets and I must be honest I do tend to throw them aside (wrong I completely agree ) I ease my conscience by the fact I dont use them very often only on very long rides which i dont do too often. to wrap them in cling film or the likes would mean stopping so I dont see much of an option ! open to suggestions though as I really do hate litter
Not condoning it, but surely the event would have some sort of staff cover to clear that up?I remember getting mixed up with an Iron Man near Chorley a couple of years ago; I was shocked at the numbers of green Gatorade bidons thrown down in the road, I followed a trail of them, along with gel sachets and energy bar wrappers. Disgusting altogether.
