Njee20, my comment was made to provoke thoughts about who is actually dropping this sort of litter , who are the primary users of gels etc, multi lap racer types? Fat knackered weekend warriors? Diabetics? Workers fitting in a quick lap or two who haven't eaten tea or food before turning up and riding? Or Joe Average?
Like I put it's sheer laziness either wasy and a disregard and disrespect for not just the countryside but any public space and those same people will happily litter drop anywhere no doubts.

and secondly who needs a gel to get around Swinley? Unless of course you have done it 3 times.
Probably the same kind of people who throw rubbish out of their cars on the M25.
... given that Swinley is like the M25 😛

You put it squarely on racer types though, and I'm just saying that as a racer type, I'm not sure I've ever seen a fellow-racer type even have a gel on a ride. They're generally the preserve of the [s]fat weekend warrior[/s] enduro hero IME!
As for goggle tear offs... srsly!?

I don't know if I'm honest - I see the litter but I don't see who drops it. The junk food / luozade bottles I imagine are from kids / none serious riders (there were loads of scroatey looking yoofs out yesterday). The gels and stuff are from people who should know better.
Either way, you're a **** (insert suitable word) for doing it. It shouldn't be left to others to pick up.

I think some people just don't see litter, or if they do they don't view it as an issue. If people are willing to drop litter I don't think they will change their attitude until they have to actually wade through knee high crap. And unfortunately decent folk will have cleared it up long before then.
seems where ever humans go... rubbish will follow no matter how intelligent they may appear... (everything in the picture was left.. except the astronaut and maybe the lander?) [img]
