After finding a brand new inner tube today I wondered how much stuff is lost & found on the trails

In recent years ....

I've lost
A watch

I've found
A new inner tube
A pump
A multi-tool
A Cateye computer head
A ten pound note

What have other folk lost & found?

I once found a C ring from the bottom of a Fox shock in the Alps. Really mad thing was, I know who lost it a few weeks earlier before I got out there!

Lost the rebound adjuster knob from my Rebas. I'd imagine that's pretty common, seems like they just drop out!
And a TLD glove.

Two of the little gold internal floodgate caps from Rockshox forks.

Exciting to find, utterly pointless to keep (think i donated them to a shop in case they ever needed spares).

I've left a trail of tools across the Pentlands when i stupidly kept them in the underside pocket of my Deuter (where the waterproof cover normally goes) and left it open.
