Things you see on a ride...

Hardcore unicyclist, in full gear, coming the wrong way up the trail. :shock:
Something that always brings up a smile is when I'm belting along, and I reach speed and directional parity with one of our winged cousins.
Unfortunately it's not really out of the ordinary to find people shagging in the undergrowth. Honestly, must you get down to it 5 feet away from the bloody track? At least make some effort...0 -
I've seen some funny things and a few nasty ones too.
Whilst riding in Richmond park I got the opportunity to see two Buck deer fighting. It was amazing and let me tell you, they don't mess about! The noise of their antlers clashing was horrendous. Needless to say, I turned around and made haste in the opposite direction.0 -

Oh yeah, maybe...didn't know birds ate Ice Cream though, especially not enough to keep the Mr Whippy van in business...mind you, the sun was out... (until the thunderstorm hit)...Was on Leyton Flats near Wanstead, East London (the nice bit...honest)0 -
i nearly hit a muntjac dear on the trail, it just ran out of a clump of ferns right in front of me :shock:
ive also seen a naturist hike, that was really wierd, they just casually waved at me as i passed lol0 -
I saw a couple dogging in their car one Thursday evening when I was out for a spin round Muiravonside Country Park near Falkirk.
The bloke seemed to be videoing the action whilst also being the other main performer.
I was tempted to lend a hand but she was a right minger.
It's apparently a dogging hotspot.0 -
many animals and snakes but two bizzare things i have seen are
1, a Tup going about the ewes, he was walking up to 1 Ewe then suddenly pouncing onto a rather startled Ewe that was just eating grass. He had a plan and it was working.
2, Ducks, god they are just brutal. all and i mean all the males were just (and i use the words to describe ithe scene as i cant think of any others) Gang rapping the female ducksfly like a mouse, run like a cushion be the small bookcase!0 -

I just see wildlife: foxes, deer, buzzards, various falcons, lots of beagles, rabbits, hares, barn owls, pheasants, Guinea fowl, Ermine Moth caterpillars (the sort that spin webs), horse riders, etc.Claud Bulter Cape Wrath D27 (2009)

Damn! I go there regularly.
Where abouts do you cycle around the park? have you gone down the steep windy bit with the nice view yet?
I need to go there in the evening sometime 0 -
Rather you than me!
The sight of a man in lycra may be just what someone is looking for!0 -
That chap's probably logged on to www.doggingradar.com responding to a thread titled "Things you see on a ride..." - some pervy spandex clad cyclist peering in the window!0

Riding a track at the edge of a farmer's field, flushed two young deer from a hedgerow. They ran into the field & flushed a pair of birds (grouse?) out from the crops. Then all 5 of us (me, the deer, & the grouse) suddenly had to stare up at the sky when we heard a hawk screech with disgust as he peeled away having just been cheated out of his dinner. Magic.
Felt pleased for the grouse, & sorry for the hawk at the same time. Soft touch, me.0 -

A few months back me and my mate were doing an exploratory ride on the Forest of Dean dirt roads we decided to follow the (dirt) path to Coleford. On the way we saw the Darkhill Ironworks for the first time. My mate pointed something out to me. I couldn't believe it, on the other side of the ironworks there were two OAP women posing naked while their OAP hubbies took photos of them. I was speechless. We just got back on our bikes and rode off.
On that same route another time I saw heaven, a lovely nubile female dog walker saw us riding towards her, so she leaned forward to grab her little dog by the collar and revealed what I can only describe as gravity defying orbs of perfection.
Me and my were so distracted by the site before us we almost collided much to her amusement.
I also came across a dead sheep on a dirt road in the Forest of Dean too.
In Swinley I've found a few abandoned (burnt out, corroded) road motorcycles, one was a Honda VF400 for sure.. I still cannot believe clowns steal and dump bikes in bloody forests.0 -
Thats the Forest of Dean for you. 0

On various rides in the Chilterns I have seen:
- grass snakes
- llamas (bred in fields not wandering wild!)
- deer running around (in Swinley once I saw a stag at full speed downhill through bracken - amazing sight)
- hawk taking a grouse
- a swarm/flock of red kite over a hay field - literally 20+ kites swirling round looking for pray being flushed by the farmer
- minature pony standing in the middle of a field - looked like it had fallen in a hole
- a hideously sweating old geezer on a wrecked old tourer loade to the gills in the middle of the woods - seemed a strange place for him to be!
- a wonderfully filled pair of jodpurs (spelling?!)
My favourites to see out and about are definitely birds of pray and deer.
Not seen any dogging thoughCloset jockey wheel pimp whore.0 -
Plenty of doggers up Woodbury in East Devon.
Think I've seen the lot now...mainly boobs but the worst was the bloke have a 'Splash 'n' Dash' in the headlights of a dogger's car.

Strangest thing though was the woman having an experience with a battery powered toy on a bench by Alton Water. And this was lunchtime on a Friday.Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.
