About time I get a bike, get cans and get in shape.
That it what I do, ride my bike, get exercise and get cans. When I ride I will wear my green trousers with a large cargo pocket on each leg. I will stuff these with crushed cans until they are full, then empty them into plastic bags I have brought along. These bags will get hung on the handlebars (and flipped over the handle bars once so they do not swing too much) and I start filling the pockets again. I have also cut the top off of the largest plastic bottle I could find that would fit in the water bottle holder. Into this bottle goes other small scrap I see (wheel weights, brass fittings, lug nuts, etc). I usually have a pretty good load when I get back home, and then I proceed to separate it all out, and feel better for the exercise I got.
