Nick’s story
“We were pushing our bikes up the steep bridleway when we saw a bullock staring at us up above on the steep side of the valley. We stopped & the bullock turned to go through to the next field & joined 3 more bullocks in a group. My brother had picked up a fence post as he had been chased a month ago down from Burbage edge. As we passed them at a reasonable distance they came towards us at pace but not charging. We stopped, shouted & thrust the fence pole, they backed off but came again to which we repeated our actions. They backed off again & this time stayed put as we slowly but purposely walked on.”
Nick would like Fencing & ask farmers to situate feed stations well away from paths.
