I spotted a big yellow hi vis object in the road ......
someones loaded altura pannier in the middle of the cycle path.
someones going to be having a bad day when they get to the office.
Propped it up against the wall next to the path as there was little point in me taking it to my work. If id dropped it first thing id do would be turn around and go look for it - not much chance of me mincing round the office in my lycra all day 😉
Didn't check for any form of contact details within ?
no because i was late for work thanks to being a little cautious on the ice from my house - decided it was better to leave it where it was in a visible place than take it to work then look for details. - that and i had no where to put it other than on my handlebars :d
I'm sorry but how the hell do you not notice a pannier falling off? One of mine fully loaded (like, Monday morning) feels like its about half the mass of the moon 🙁
I'd probably have checked for contact details though - although, their mobile phone is probably in the bag 😀
would have been handy if they worked at the same place as me actually - i forgot my wallet and subsequently my door card..... couldnt get in when i got to the office !
i lost my pannier this morning on a cycle path to work, contained 1 hundred billion million dollars....
😉
well its exactly where you left it - only about 3 foot to the left propped up against the wall.
Even if late, the (less) least you could've done was a 2-min check for any contact details...

That's Karma for you mate - and don't walk under any ladders, cross black cats etc
if its still there when i go home ill have a look for id then 😉 if not i shall assume the owner went back and got it as i would have.
i dont keep id in my panniers when i use them tbh so it never occured to check. Wallet and phones live in the back pocket of my jersey.
No disrespect but this is a bit of a non story. You found someone else property but did nothing about it. Someone else has probably half inched the poor guys pannier / contents by now.
well more fool them if they steal property - thats not nice.
and if you think about it - someone could be sat in their office right now short of a pannier reading this and will get in touch to ask where it is ...... think of it as a PSA 😉
It'd be quite refreshing if everyone was as naive as the OP... Unfortunately some poor buggers personal belongings may well have been exchanged for skag by now!
Next time, at least look inside, eh?
I drove to work this morning.
Nothing much happened.
