my skill was not honed to that degree, so many times i was fooled by a few random pages from kays or freemans :cry: :cry:

as a youngster(12) whilst oy cycling and chucking old scappy bikes of the tip top to see them crash(I know!) I fell over a big stone onlty to find it was a WW2 ARP helmet, complete ...I cleaned it up and used it to play army for a few years before selling it to a mate for the price of a couple of beers.

If anyone finds a Specialized water bottle; the large one with the screw top and 'cats bum' bite valve, in Wales it is mine

You are aware aren't you those that are caught 'at it' in public, be it the woods or whatever half intend to be happened upon, as it is a recognised fetish, apparently it adds to the buzz.

It's one of the pleasures of cycling down the cut everyday to and from work you get to see some sights especially when the local area is a tad rough.
So far (if you pardon the expression) I have come across:
2x couples shagging strangely as per an earlier post both the blokes did a runner leaving the birds stood there with the undercarriages hanging out.
1x Man ( i think it was a man ) floating face down in the canal with some old boy trying to lift his/her head above the water. he/she lived.
10+ glue bags
1x small child stood beneath a bridge seemingly on her own, I obviously waited for someone to turn up which was around 10 minutes later when her mother turned up said thanks and walked off. She didn't appreciate the mouthful I gave her regarding this.
Thats about it no goodies or anything at all.

Oh, and one more "trophy" from 3 years ago:
I was riding to work through a small village, it was about 6 AM, the place was still asleep (it was Saturday). I cycled near a path that leads to small woods, after few meters I realized that there was a rolled banknote on the road. I stopped, put the bike down, walked back... Hell yeah! 20 squids! But wait a second... Few meters away another rolled £20! And it was 5 of those rolled 20's apart 3-4 meters! Just when I had picked the last one I saw a lady with a dog in the woods staring at me (I had to look quite weird really...). I looked at her and the only thing my mind could tell me to do was to ask her if she had lost any money... She looked concerned, said "no", but then she started to check her pockets and I knew she would say "aaaaah, yes! Yes I have! How much have you found?", but before it happened I jumped back on the bike and I was £100 richer...
The woman had to walk that way a minute before me, how the hell she didn't see the banknotes...

Ive got some helmetcam footage of a rambler taking a dump.
It was a lovely single track section when we passsed a group of women waiting at a passing point (nothing new) 20 yards down the lane was another lady parking her breakfast in some nettles.
I was the first of about 15 bikers that passed her flat out, I was laughing so hard for the rest of the section that I swallowed a fly and nearly choked.
