Change of route

I had planned to do some hill training this morning when I remembered Sunday is a hunting day in this part of France.

Every year the hunters manage to shoot a few dozen of themselves and innocent bystanders, walkers and cyclists.

So I kept to the lower roads where the only danger is being flattened by a fleeing wild boar. Funny what can push you to a new PB. 🐷

Sodding hunters! I’m glad they shoot each other! Very wise to keep away from them!

Sounds more like a military firing range, not a place for cycling or running.

Eek. Someone in this parts was out for a walk with their dog and the dog was shot by someone who thought it was a fox.

I once called Google and thought she was coming but it was a fox.
