Signs spoil my enjoyment of the countryside no matter whether I'm walking or riding.
same here - always add to survey comments "less signs!!" - needs a pic really but reckon the gate just before you cross the Porter coming into Langsett woods from Cut Gate (heard it called Coronation Street?) has over 30 signs around it
Stoffel, you are portraying others (dog owners) as having poor consideration for others (you). Take a look in the mirror fella.
"Suicide by Rubber Queen" brings is a great image to the mind of someone who took a while to realise it was a tyre.
The problem is that their is one country side. Some take their dog out. Some go for a bike ride. Some go fishing. Some canoe down rivers etc. At some times each group will inconvenience another. But probably not by much and probably not most of the time. Its generally best if we live an let live.
I think Stoffel expectation that all dogs are on a lead not wandering around is a bit OTT. I'll chip in with one reason. Say I was at Woburn with my kids and the dog. Its a while ago but as they are teenagers now
You approach us and slow down but unexpectedly an obstacle wanders in front of from behind a bush. You need to take last minute action to avoid a collision and risk injury. You're saying that my dog should be on a lead so it can't do that,. What about my children? Should they be on a lead. When wandering round a wood should they have to behave like they on a busy high street?
