one hour bike ride... zero. but then it could be because I have to pay so much attention to the road surface while I'm weaving in and out of the potholes
well this has been an eye opener for me....I've discovered I cycle looking at the floor most of the time and daydreaming!! Not a bright thing to do on the roads I guess but anyway when I DID remember
30 miles.....(country lanes though)
10..........
5 silver 2 dark Blue 2 light blue 1 grey
newest was an 08 plate and oldest 55 plate! yep even tried to remember those........
Ultra emmi, that's good spotting, I am always inexplicably cheered when I see one of the bright metallic green ones, they are my favourite, not keen on the light brown ones or those pale turquoise ones. I have a lilac one. Never really look at plates, but I do confess to knowing eaxctly where they will be parked in the area. I am always a little bit annoyed when the silver Whizz go car club one isn't in it's spot in Leeds.
Oh yes deffinately count parked, if you pass a citroen showroom you have to be quick at counting but you get mega-yields. Also on an out and back route you are allowed to count parked ones twice, but not if they overtake you and you have already counted them.
I can't believe I have all these self imposed rules

sometime KK you are really hard work.
the secrets in the title and first post!!!!!!!
How embarassing, my verging on the obsessive trivial proccupations laid bare.
Didn't see any while running round the track but there were three in the car park.
I never count my own btw even upon returning from a trip where there has been a very poor turnout.- now that would be cheating.
I read this thread first thing this morning and just though, "silly".
Drove to a meeting later on. Passed 8 Picassos. All silver. Curse you, Monique!!
Why is it that when I read this the first time, I was thinking of paintings?
And now I know that I'll be Picasso-counting on the way home.
Ooooh look, there's 'Guernica'...
15 miles .......... 3
probably more but I am blind as a bat
nearly 5 mile plod...3, 1 silver, 2 pale blue which might have been the same one.
2 hours tonight - 0.
Which was a relief
Statistically you will see more if you
a) don't cycle in very posh or extremely hilly areas
b) train at peak picasso times- between the hours of 7:30 am and 8:30 pm weekdays, bit later on the weekends as the kids can stay up.
Perfect 7 each way on the 14 mile commute and exactly 6 on my 6 mile run, picasso-tastic
I tell you it becomes an obsession.
I think the clue is in the title...
...unless of course I've made a huge mistake
