Title: Warning for Cylists in Goring & Whitchurch
Post by: lordgoata on August 21, 2014, 08:52:54
I know this is nothing to do with the trains, but hopefully is covered by the "other ways to travel" subject! Anyway, a warning to any cyclists in Goring and Whitchurch, police have reported that string has been put across a number of bridleways in the area, at neck height for cyclists. This also happened a few years back if I recall.

The news article is a bit confusing as it mentions footpaths (where you shouldn't be riding anyway), and bridleways.
