All of this touchy-feely stuff was immediately replaced with rage after crushing my seatpost collar shortly after picking up the latter said plastic bag.
Ride 100 feet, adjust seatpost +
Ride 100 feet, adjust seatpost +
Ride 100 feet, adjust seatpost +
Ride 100 feet, adjust seatpost
= Grrrr...
Every body who rides a bike should pick up at least one piece of trash they find out on the trail.
Then stuff like this won't get in the way-
Now, I'm sure that some irresponsible biker did not leave this nicety out on the trail... I'm sure it blew in from off of the road.
Still, I come across beer cans, water bottles, powerbar wrappers and the occasional chainring bolt in my travels. Not that I have anything personal against beer cans, I just believe that they should get packed out like everything else.
Now nobody is perfect, including me. Yes, occasionally I'll drop shit on the trail and not realize I've lost it until I return to the trailhead- still I hope that one cyclist will take the initiative-
And I promise I will do the same...
