If you go down to the woods today...

Take care, there are some absolute rotters out there:

I'm always really wary when riding between posts. Some idiots out there.

West Yorkshire Police believe that the wire had been deliberately placed.

Wow thats some detective work.

That's despicable (feel free to insert a worse term) at the best of times, just now FFS

Couldn't say it better myself.

almost impossible to trace these idiots too.......if they did, what sort of charges would they face, if it's neck height you could be decapitated.....as happened to this por lad near where I cycle....

I have ridden down that Bridleway, its not close to any urban developments, not the sort of place you would expect this to happen, but I suppose there are nutters everywhere,

Blimey, that is a massive step up from throwing tacks on the path.. Why is it that nothing bad ever happens to the type of utter bastards that do this?

You'd imagine there might be some DNA on the wire, should anyone choose to look for it?

 

[Drago]

The dibvle should be treating it as an attempted wounding and recovering the wire for DNA analysis.

Still, that aside, I steer clear of the woods. Strange things happen there.
