Bike Cleanup

After work I biked over to the drainage channel that runs into the Speed River. The channel always has a lot of debris, some freshly dropped, some washed in by the last few storms.

It took under an hour to fill a big tub. It’s the same one we pulled out of the Speed in August, and we’ve hauled with it ever since — it’s much sturdier than a bag for wet plastic.

Here’s a quick video of the cleanup:
