What is the best thing you have found while riding a bike?

It's hard not to notice giant piles of free stuff on trash day sometimes! Just tie a rope to it and drag it home lol

Best thing I have found is a bone handled case X knife

Money. I've found everything from a $5 to a $20 bill.

The best thing that I've found was a GPS, but I found and returned it to the owner, so I guess that really doesn't count. The best thing that I found and kept was a Park CT-7 chain tool. Not sure why anyone would lug one of those around on the trail. The things gotta weigh half a pound.

Once I was riding on a trail behind a sewage treatment center and found all in the same spot a pearl earring, a silver quarter from 1946, and a silver medallion for a necklace

Wow, you guys are lucky! I think the best I've found are some cool-looking rocks. Maybe I'm just not observant enough.

I find Native American culture very interesting and I've found some really awesome arrowheads out in the hill country around the lake. Took them home, washed them off, and put them on display!

When I was a kid my buddy and I used our bikes to cruise the highways and pick up aluminum cans. Also did a bunch of dumpster diving for cans we found all kinds of stuff in the dumpsters. But the most unique thing we found was while riding outside of town on a can collecting run. We came upon a pair of badgers that were hit by a car while having sex. They were hit by quite a few vehicles and not separated but just flattened out and dried up. We got a real kick out of it and our at age 14 our suspicions were confirmed, Sex was awesome. We knew that because they both had what looked like a smile on their faces.

Sammie, you really should give them back to their people... that is where they should truly be displayed... you will feel better about it and the trail back to where they truly belong will be an incredible journey.

Just a suggestion.

As for things I have found, I must be ridin in the wrong places, mostly just trash I try to pick up a little every ride..I did find a leather backpack used for a baby's diaper supplies, no dirty diapers, but no ID, so couldn't return it, kept the backpack, but had no use for the baby stuff...
I need to find better places to ride, seems like I'm always lookin down, just ain't findin the good stuff, but I'll keep lookin.

the coolest thing i found was a pocket knife from back in the early 20's. I found it after I ate it around a turn and rolled down the hill a little ways. something sharp stabbed me, and I found it!
