because its much more fun than riding on the road and without the risk of been mown down by a car.I can’t believe it either,
Yes, I know they do it but why !!!
yes its a brilliant farm tool, without doubt the best thing i have ever bought.is an E mountain bike a usable farm tool, son is looking for a new bike and now im just considering if i could use one of these for checking cattle and crops, and it being a business tool?@johnnyboxer
did you manage to buy it through the business with that in mind,yes its a brilliant farm tool, without doubt the best thing i have ever bought.
You and me have a different idea of funbecause its much more fun than riding on the road and without the risk of been mown down by a car.
what's the solution ?
In my opinion its Education and not Confrontation
get some (friendly) signs up, Im sure people walking on my wheat have no idea that they are damaging a crop, they probably just think its grass and that's fine to walk on right ??
shouting at people rarely works, teaching them something new is often appreciated however
off course there will always be the idiots that do not care and will never learn etc but we just have to accept that, there is nothing we can do, you can not reason with unreasonable people !
There is a field near me where the farmer has put up signs at the footpath entrance from the road saying that legally he has to allow a 1m wide footpath across the middle of the following fields. He has therefore fenced a 1m wide alleyway with two rows of wooden posts every 10 metres with tape fastened on at about a 4 foot height. The fields in question are quite long and thin with the footpath going across the middle of the shortest sides, but even so it must be a bit of a hassle putting it all upWhat's wrong with fencing off footpaths, so walkers don't stray?

The fields are already quite small (albeit long and thin), and the footpaths go right across the middle. Normally, they are cropped with arable crops, but personally I would consider putting them into grass, as both fields are on the side of a hill, with the long sides going across the slope; so they aren't the most safe to navigate (although probably safer than going up and down), and all the water from the road drains down the fields in the winter, and in the summer they dry out, meaning the crops often aren't the best.Would it be a major issue to fence it off permanently? Just put up with having 2 fields where there may have been one?
