I believe that companies who supply product in glass...should be responsible for the disposal or recycling of their glass bottle...a deposit should be offered...it is the only way to stop drunks throwing the bottle on the road.

 

When have ever seen a broken quart bottle on the road?

 

clearly you don't live in the EC

On a roadbike, its just a No, No, No, No !

 

I usually say no to mountainbikes as well, but someone with a fugly saddlebag saved my ass today when I need a bomb after burping my tyre. Five kays later and I have a lengh of fishing line wrapped around my jockey wheel so I broke my chain to get all the gut out. I like an idiot, dropped my quick link in the dirt and lost it and Mr. Fugly saddlebag rescued my ass again. He had a spare. On the day I forget all my spares the cycling gods have humbled me.

Sounds like quite a bloke hey[emoji6]

And there I was thinking roadies were an unfriendly bunch... Meanwhile its my saddle bag and hairy legs scaring them off  .... :ph34r:

 

Actually not scaring them off. You are just camouflaging.  With hairy legs and a saddle bag you like like a tent in the bush.

I was thinking more along the lines of a hairy taratula dragging a massive egg sac around.

Ladies love them
