Thanks to Geoff for pointing this one out to me:
Roadside Treasures
One of my favorite pastimes when out cycling!
My best find to date is probably the very bright anodized aluminum multiple-LED flashlight I found half-buried in the muddy shoulder last March.
Yeah, it was cold that day, by the looks of my hands. I put a new set of 3 AAA batteries in it and made the mistake of looking at the business end when I turned it on. I saw spots for a little while after that.
Other than that, I've found loads of bungee cords, different types of balls, assorted tools, and what have you. Not everything I pick up is good, but my rule is that if I pick it up, I take it home and either keep it, give it away, or dispose of it. It's roadside cleanup, if nothing else!
Oh, yeah, the pictures remind me that I found an awesome set of gloves on the side of the road, too. I use them when I ride on the coldest days. They are so good that I'm going to buy a couple of new sets.
