That's shocking. That bit of trail is used heavily by bikes, families, dog walkers and horses, as it's pretty close to the car park.

The trail in question is the old dh behind the bombhole. A PALLET LACED WITH 6" NAILS WAS EMBEDDED IN THE TRAIL WITH INTENT TO CAUSE MAJOR HARM TO THOSE USING THE TRAIL. whether it be bikers or walkers this could have caused a major injury . The police are now involved and are taking this very seriously. how fffing stupid do you have to be to do something like this. families walk on this trail and bikers ride fast and would never see a small obstacle like this. ---------------------- ==== This e-mail is intended solely for the addressee.
