    1 Light Blue Gore Tex cycling jacket on the way to work this morning. Most likely near the Forth Road Bridge around 07:50. Reward for safe return. Its a Gore Tex Countdown road jacket in light blue chest/back and black arms. Size Large. In a light blue rectangular zipped bag.

    DaveC, what route did you take this morning? I'll see how much of it I can cover on the way home.

    I rode the route in the strava link below:

    http://www.strava.com/activities/154159463

    It has ben spotted by 3 people (one on Facebook, and two I spoke to on the way in this morning. It was spotted near the South Tower, and I guess it came off as I rattled over the rumble strips next to the south bridge tower.

    I called in to the bridge office and asked if anything had been handed in. I left my contact details with a note of what is lost.

    Thanks folks, I had a good look on the ride over this morning and also on the way back lastnight. I can only guess its been found and someone either thinks they have had a lucky find or they are looking for its owner but have no links to me or my Facebook groups and forums I posted on. I should have written my contact details in it.

    Cheers,

    Dave C

    Do you have a photo?

    You could put up a 'lost cat' poster at the spot.

    I was thinking of a poster but the Bridge patrol a few times a day and would most likely remove them. Plus the place where it was dropped is likely to have cyclists speeding past not going slowly. I'll try and put something up this evening. I have a new laminator so should try it out.

    Ach that'll be the bridge workers stuff. I left a message with the bridge office about my jacket with my contact details.

    Cheers, Dave C
