Uses for 'used' tennis balls

What do you do with your used tennis balls?

In the month of April 2011, four enthusiastic members of Grantham’s society signed up with people from all over the country to take part in a charitable bike ride from London to Paris. Averaging around 65 miles a day, the trip is designed to push each person in different ways, and the reward for completing the trip was a day at the red clay of Roland Garros for the French Open.
