Thread: What do cyclists pick up?

Thanks Nathan,

Thats probably you on a training ride getting ready for a challenge over Razorback!

Graham

depends on how many you have on your bike first

Hey blokes,

Wanna good pick up?

Check out the rural block thread. Pick up the Cubbie club plan.

ITS CUBBIE-RIFFIC.

At it again, picking up:

Right hand (only) bikies glove. Brand RIVET. Size must be medium or small cause i can't get my hand into it. Free to Forumites if you want it!

50 metres down the road there was a red-bellied black just about to cross the road. I wasn't thinking about snakes when i went into the bush to retrieve the glove.

I have a collection of shackles. Sometimes you find the bolt, sometimes the U shaped bit. Sometimes you can actually find a part that will fit something else and make a whole shackle!

Makes you wonder if those shackles were holding anything important before they fell off.

Graham

How about a $5 note at the top of a hill?

Halfway down I would not have bothered.

Would you have picked it up?

Graham

Yup sure would! That's 4ltrs of cola for rum and cola.

I got a glimpse of it while riding. Couldn't be! Stopped went back and picked it up.
It was a 250mm makita saw blade in a packet.
Now i was thinking that I could offer it to someone on the Forum but i had a look and it was as blunt as bu%$^ery. Tungsten tips had been worn away and no kerf left.
Well I needed to satisfy my curiosity.

Bugger Graham! Nearly a way to cross woodwork with cycling. I'm keeping an eye out around here - council rubbish collection round here at the moment. Everyone seems to find the scores ahead of me though (my neighbour has picked up wide western red cedar boards, someone 'throwing out' a Tassie Oak kitchen, and of those old metal pedal cars that are worth a mint if restored correctly!).

Nathan.

this morning at my teenage daughters soccer, I was amazed to watch a guy on a bike. As is the custom at most soccer fields, at the back of one of the goalpost was parked a wheelie bin used to store the nets etc in the shed along with a small step ladder, hammer and pegs etc to set up the nets. The game was in progree when this guy came along on his bike and spotted this perfectly good ladder someone had seemingly discarded in the bin. You would have thought the fact that the bin was sitting right beside the goalpost, goalie in situ and hammer and pegs placed neatly beside should have told the guy they weren't rubbish, but we all watched in amazement as he spent 10 minutes trying to work out how best to juggle his new found treasures on the bike before deciding it would be easier to walk the bike and carry his goods. Unfortunately for him by this time 2 dads had wondered over to tell him that he was actually helping himself to the clubs equipment and there was two teams of parents standing watching him. I still wonder if he was really that stupid or just thought it was worth a try.Bob

Bloody bikers again! Running red lights and now stealing ladders.

I carried a 1200mm level for 20+km. He should have been able to 'do' the ladder for a short trip.

I stop and pick up pennies.

Best find was a cell phone, she bought the wife and I lunch.

Week ago Sunday I picked up a traffic warning. 51mph in a 40 zone.
