Not quite on the same scale , but a couple of my regular routes through the edges of the Yorkshire dales often feature in mass sportives, following these events the roads are lined with gel wrappers and other crap, these are quiet roads through small villages and farmland... Why on earth can't people just shove their empty wrappers in their jersey pocket? Especially on a sportive with feed/hydration stops (with bins they can empty their shit into) gel wrappers are 100% not biodegradable in any way...idiots
