Where Wheels Will Never Turn Again

Today I had a test drive of a narrow boat down in Worcestershire .It was an adventure for many reasons . Main one being locks were involved , very narrow locks too.Canals are to be found where once upon  a time there were mills and factories .Most are now flats or awaiting further funding .Tow paths are a home for a life form which thrives  (weeds) Today I spotted this bike. Not good .Bikes in UK cost a fair amount .I'm amazed as to how they are discarded .Plus they are an eyesore .Then graffiti .Something I  personally find repulsive .
