Setting out for a 30 mile run yesterday, I headed for the Humber foreshore near the bridge and was
somewhat startled to see a Raleigh Team Banana road bike dumped in the mud flats at low tide. After
finding a plank of wood to walk on, I managed to drag it out of the river. I then hid it in some
gorse bushes and returned to pick it up today.
I know it's not exactly akin to finding King John's jewels in The Wash but there's not a lot wrong
with it. Needs a front tyre, rear wheel and the crank sorting out. Gears and brakes seem OK.

Will post photos of it on the mud flats later.
