Today I picked up a bottle of water, a wheel reflector, and a plastic grocery bag. let's keep this going and not just at Boyette. Where ever you ride pick up the trash.
I became insane with long intervals of horrible sanity.

Removed a complete Magna bike with a trashed rear wheel and deraillieur from the South West Trail today and a Hammer gel package.  On a related note - It's beyond me why racers throw their gel packets on the ground during a race instead of simply slipping it in the leg of their shorts.  Take it in/take it out.

Id hate to point out that it IS mostly the racers, as well as a few other lazy people.  I will say that the 2 times ive seen a GU wrapper hit the ground, it has been riders in full race outfits on expensive bikes.  I will also say (because I know one culprit) that the majority of people that drop after a recharge are road riders that also ride dirt. (out of habit from road racing).  Still, I HAT LITTER!!!
 
Garry, lets hook that magna up with a King headset and a new rear wheel and ROCK IT!!!!!  :)

good thing I use Powerbar gels.

Any kind of littering sucks.

I think I might have lost one of my reflectors :'(





Just kidding  :P

I have lost my chain tool and tire levers when I forgot to close my seat pack last year.  Another time I forgot to lock down my front wheel skewer and lost the nut on SST and later lost my front wheel on Lochness.  When I was walking back to the car, I couldn't find that nut on SST.

I have two water holders that I use to pickup ones left/lost by other litter bugs.
