Whats the strangest thing you've found while out cycling

Two weeka ago, on my commute to work, I found a Flip HD video recorder lying in the road. Last week I found a 4GB memory stick, nowhere near the first find.

My work cycling collegue yesterday saw a swimming pull buoy, which is not exactly a small thing.

So, what's the strangest thing you've seen or found?

Two things.
1: A love of exerting myself almost to the point of exhaustion.
2: I make skin tight lycra look good.

I found a fridge freezer once, in the entrance to a field,couldn't get my bungees to hold it onto the rack though

Two dogs fecking in a country lane in Ireland. Had my cousin and I doubled over with laughter.

Bacteria Man

Two massive black guys asleep on each other, both leaning out of the drivers side door of an old Merc in the middle of the ghetto at 6 in the morning. Wanted to take a photo, but thought they would probably damage me severely if they woke up.

Oh yeah and when cycling through some woods just outside Cardiff, I saw a middle-aged couple indulging in what I will euphamistically describe as a bit of home movie making for the personal collection. :shock:

A five pound note in the gutter - strange and useful....and once a GPS thingy - in hyde Park - worth £85. You can buy it on ebay now for £25 if you're interested.

I found a fiver commuting home last night as well, stopped at some traffic lights and there it was in the gutter.

I found a white powder and bag containing said powder on my cousin's car bonnet - turns out it was cocaine!!
Was staying "up north" with them and went out for a bit of a bimble around greater Manchester.....noticed it just as I got on my bike - realised it was not flour and called the rozzas.....

You'd never have spotted that if you RLJ'd.

I've mentioned this before and don't expect anyone to believe me now, either, but I once saw a Golden Eagle standing at a bus stop on my commute. There wasn't even a bus due for ages.

Hahah! Brilliant - used to be buzzards perched on the top of the fence around the old Hitachi factory loading bay in Hirwaun years ago waiting for rats to scurry out - at least that's what people said (I reckon they were knocking off tellys).

Strangest thing I've ever seen was a speedboat rammed through a hedge half way up the Rhigos mountain.

I saw a woman in flip flops step on a dead rat yesterday morning. If you were commuting in London you probably heard the shriek!

A dead shark in a large polythene bag, in Leicestershire. Lost? Maybe a suicide bid on the shark's part?

Technically I was walking the dog (but it is somewhere I would regularly cycle) - a body.

Strangely, the wife was not impressed when I brought it back for her. :?

It doesn't count as finding if you put it there in the first place.

Coming out of Bracknell; a pair of PlayBoy Bunny girl ears in the ditch!!!!

I was once out riding in Swinley forest and discovered a very well hidden campsite. One tent and a few bits and pieces, considering Swinleys close proximity to Broadmoor I had to fulfill my civic duty and inform the authorities (the two old dears who work at the discovery centre). All a bit creepy to be honest.

Well I did post on here about a ghost I saw. Made a great story until some boring sod on here pointed out it was a Will O' the Wisp :roll:

Just remembered many moons ago me and a mate where cycling in Epping Forest and stopped for a bite to eat in a car park.

Two cars pulled up, a man in one, a woman in the other. They walked into the woods together and I forgot all about them.

A few minutes later, we were on our bikes again and saw him standing with his trousers round his ankles and her kneeling infront of him.

Cheeky git waved a cheery hello at us. She was a bit busy and had her hands (and mouth) full.

A car driver with his trousers undone and, er, pleasuring himself, at a set of traffic lights.
