I also weeded my street, believe it or not!
Goatheads are evil.
10,000 punctures (and future puncture factories) in a bag...
Weeding is effective, but weeding every street in the county is not practical, alas.
at one time I would often pick up glass on the nearby neighborhood streets where I would ride occasionally
at the time glass was not included in our allowable recyclables - but is now and the amount of small pieces of broken glass is excessive and clearing the streets of glass is no longer practical
so - no more neighborhood bike rides
