You might have to accept your Strava time is ****ed when theres a bloke with a dog on lead walking up the footpath you're hammering down.

Not posting for discussion - I've cheakily ridden it loads just a bit pissed off with the Strava-ness of it.

Sad isn't it. Too selfish to share, just takes a little slow down, recognition and a hello or nod and everyone is happy.

Have a look on Strava and out them.

It was a shit walk last night - I turned right at the top of Buckden and dropped down Robins Hood -> back of Soapy -> railway lines back to Stubbins and my car. Got fully blinded by 3guys all running bar and helmet lights on the railway lines - it's ****ing tarmac, I'm walking towards you with a dog you don't need 6000lumens to see me.

I'm not a Daily Mail reading gammon - I'm on STW! but I was pretty pissed off last night.

Buckden Woods has always been on the naughty side of cheeky - it's on NT land and a footpath. It's one where you stop if there's a walker coming up and try and have a natter. You don't full send thinking your at Whistler bike park

I might know who the three are based on my Strava following...

Buckden attracts nobs unfortunately, I am always careful to wait, be polite, say thanks if a walker lets me through

Robin Hood's Well is bad as well but has horses using it, so the risk of conflict is even higher

I get your point about massive lights on a railway line. Share the trail man, don't blind folk too!!
