The blue signs give it away, defo a motorway. Most up here in Scotland only have two lanes each side.

Cheers Tim, I was a bit worried there as I'd forgotton what one looked like. Could you do me a favour and add a dual carriageway (for Steve) and some A, B and C roads as I have amnesia from looking at sh1t websites. :thumbup:

Has Seb hijacked Timbo's account?????

and why is it you only ever find one shoe on a road?
Never two! what's the use of that? 8O
Also, don't people realise one of their shoes just fell off? There they are crossing the road, off comes the shoe and they don't notice untill they get home :wtf:

Once found £130 when I was cycling nr Dent in Yorkshire Dales. It wasn't all in one bundle I kept having to stop to pick it up, couldn't take my eyes off the road all the way back to campsite.

On the subject of finding something, not wanting it but reporting it, I came across a double mattress on a dual carriageway that was on the verge (not literally) of causing a major pile-up. All public spirited like, I called plod, went back to the scene to remove it and found myself on the end of a third-degree interrogation. They simply didn't get it that it wasn't mine I had just dumped and I reported it as it was feckin' dangerous :crazy:

This is my mate Mark (Cupa, Tim and Dave should remember his magoo-esque riding techniques) with one we found just outside Hawick last year.

Funny, that.
On the Badger Forum there's a post saying that a badger found a biker while laying down for a little snooze in the road.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
