    Can’t see that this has been done already: From the guardian website today:

    “Snow saved a cyclist from serious injury when he was caught by a rope strung across an offroad track at Hamsterley, County Durham. Police are investigating the incident, which left Lukasz Sikorski, 29, with bruises and a rope-burn”.

    I mean WTF? I know its not the first time this sort of thing has happened elsewhere, but as I understand it Hamsterley is a proper trail centre yet some **** muppet still thinks he is in the right to do this! It is of course unacceptable anywhere but this beggars belief…

    Not good, saw that on tuesday I think it was, if I saw someone doing that it could be time for some Captain Cave Man club action!

    Utter madness. Should be treated as attempted murder but I somehow doubt it will be given any priority at all.

    Puts the Peaslake stickman to shame!

    I found innertubes stretched across trees on a very busy trail, i guess it was a walker upset with a biker littering the woods, scared the shoot outa me

    Then years ago there were the pointy sticks buried into the ground pointing uphill but that could have been anti horse 😯

    Thing is, with increased exposure of this incident comes the increased likelihood that someone, somewhere thinks that this is a great idea.

    Will we see a sudden spate of these types of incidents? Hope not…
