TrashQuest 2010 - A Small Group but a Big Success


TrashQuest 2010 - collecting rubbish from the local woods with the gang who braved the weather - which ended up dry and warm despite morning "showers".

The big weigh in - over 160kg collected in only one hour. A new addition this year - the rubbish was sorted for recycling...despite slug filled bottles and sludgy cans.

Team McKenna take first with over 45kg. They also won the strangest item prize - with a floor polisher (among others). Team Page were second, Callum was third, and Team Smith/Hamilton were fourth. Mega effort from all.
The little one gets her hands dirty and as the youngest participant takes home a purple bell for her bike as a prize. Ivor was a key contributor as well, scaling the hills like a billy goat.

Good job MegaDob - very slick event with great sponsors, Flying Fox http://www.flyingfoxbikes.com and Stirling Bike Club http://www.stirlingbikeclub.org.uk/index.php.
