Recycle whilst we ride

[classic33]

Someone used my bike as a recycling centre. I left my bike on the sidewalk for a week while i was on holiday and when i returned, there were beer cans, coke cans, crisp packets, all stuffed into the rack and spokes etc. I just got a carrier bag and put them into the [proper] recycling centre.

The like for the part in bold.

Just in case anyone needs any further incentive to pick up rubbish, they can click here for a rather distressing image of a red squirrel killed by a discarded plastic bottle.

Keep up the good work everyone!

yes that is distressing but it highlights the problem

All because somebody didn't dispose of a plastic bottle carefully so come on guys and gals 1 bottle a day ?

This San Marco "rolls" saddle was my recycle item this morning , it was just lying on the edge of a grass verge so picked it up and bought it home

It looked like it had been there for a while

Exactly

We had a rather bracing walk along our local foot paths this morning and we were both disgusted by the amount of rubbish and litter on these paths , so i am going to step up my picking up of recycle able rubbish as i ride along these paths .

This is something we could all do quite simply and it might make a difference to all of us , anybody want to join in ?
