A couple of weeks ago, a friend was out hacking and some weirdo came out of some gorse bushes and ran off - complete with a whip!

Then yesterday evening, another friend went out quickly after work, and her horse started snorting and wouldnt go down a certain track, so she took the next one and as she went past some guy ran out of the bushes again - complete with green lycra outfit and green tutu (sp?)

que her horse spinning and trying to run off, and making the rest of us uneasy about going out in the evenings

Seriously if you want to dress up and be weird like that, do it in your own homes, dont jump out of bushes at us having a nice hack after work

I know mate I tell ya stay over your side, my side is full of dodgy people!!!
 
That is wierd! I remember when I was 16 hacking my welshie down an old canal tow path when some old man came up to me asking the time. slowed down to look at my watch when he came over and tried to pull me off my pony telling me that horses shouldnt be on paths! and that we were smelly, rude and we made a mess of the country side. I kicked pony on who cantered off down the path. That was the wierdest encounter I had with the public.
 
What part of Dartmoor? this has got me a bit worried as my daughter hacks out on her own, she is quite capable, but I would worry that horse would shy and leave daughter on floor, with what sounds like a madman! have you reported this to police
 
OMG, i'm not sure if i find this funny or not (well i do to a certain extent) but seriously, men running out in the middle of nowhere out of bushes with whips and dressed in tutus? Have you reported it because i think i would have. I think quite honestly if a man jumped out of my from a bush i would absolutely s**t myself, i would be so scared, i think it may need reporting as you just dont know who these men are, they could be unsafe!
 
LOL sorry I know it must be scary for it to actually happen but to read about it is hilarious.

Shadowmonkey - that is really scary! Thank god you managed to get away ok!
 
I know it sounds funny! But not on your own its not, you just dont know whos around these days

Its a well known area for *ahem* men to meet up in the gorse bushes etc. I rode right past 2 (by accident) and they came out the buch, got in their cars and drove off! ewwwww

Ew...I would definitely be avoiding that route and be telling somebody that there are strange men jumping out of bushes. Someone could end up getting seriously hurt, and not necessarily the rider/horse..

Good grief, can you change your hacking route? I would!!

OMW S&M green fairies leaping out of bushes-what next.

Shadowmonkey-you should have told that man he was smelly, rude and should not be on the towpath, what an annoying old git. Why are people forever accusing horses of being smelly?? Is dog poop not a far worse thing to find on a walk? just ignore em.

xo
 
Yes I definately dont go through paths in the bushes anymore after I came across those two!!
crazy.gif
Luckily it gets burned this time of the year so there is lots of open space for us to ride
grin.gif
but really cant avoid bushes on dartmoor

Eugh!!That is wierd!

I remember when I was 16 I was riding a horse for a client and passed a man masturbating at the edge of the road (I lived in a very small village, narrow counrty lanes etc - I'd never seen him before I hasten to add...), however, I contacted the police as he was less than 100 yards from the local primary school and it was kicking out time which concerned me slightly...!!

By the time the police got there h had left needless to say!!


Hope you're ok anyway, I would avoid that route for a little while and thank the fact that the clocks are due to go forward shortly!!!
 
Friends of mine out for a hack "met" a chap running around the edge of one of the farm fields completely naked. He ran back to his clothes and got dressed quickly and ran off. My friends were shocked for a few seconds....then couldn't stop laughing - we think he was just enjoying the freedom.

If possible try and hack out with someone...your chap sounds like he is troubled and purposely acting out. Tell the police, please.

Being a serious minded concerned Mum sort of a person.

Oh dear naked people is not good
crazy.gif

The police have been informed before, but to be honest they always come back so people have stopped reporting them now

next time you go out, take a hunting whip with you and give him a good crack across his ass with it, he will think twice about doing it again, and he maybe dance a bit better lol
 
i was thinking how useful it is to carry a whip even if your horse doesn't need it, in cases where self defense may be required. Shame it's come to that but i think it has...


Used to hack out almost daily around our 'woods' track, which due to our built up area is never really more than 10 mins from the road. Lost count of the amount of cars/vans/ even less discrete places i caught people. Found it quite amusing really. Until i met an old friend and she told me she had done it on more than one occasion. EW!
 
ok, this is slightly off-topic, but it's about a weirdo...

i live fairly rurally, at the end of a village, on a dead end, with just three houses.

today, at about 1pm, i pulled out of my drive to go to tescos and there was a car parked at the side of the road. because we don't get much traffic, i noticed it... then i noticed a man squatting behind it, wiping his bum, with his trousers down.

he had done a POO on the side of the verge.

now, it may not be a busy road, but it was in full view of three houses. gross eh?

it is scary all the wierdos that are out there..i think i would tell the police to be honest.
i used to row when i was at uni and we were once practicing our standing starts and out of the corner of my eye i saw a naked bloke run down the bank and leap in the water...our coach was yelling 'focus...ignore the distraction' as the whole crew descended into mad fits of hysteria!
grin.gif

is it just me or are these stories all about wierd men rather than women?!
tongue.gif
 
i was just thinking that... you'd never catch a woman pooing in the verge! or jumping out of bushes in tutus...

my hubby was with me at the time, and he's a policeman. he didn't seem too concerned. just laughed, a lot. personally, i think he was too embarrassed to approach the poo-man. i forced him to take the number plate down... and to find out if pooing in public is an offence... ha. gross.

I hope you rang the police, it sounds like an opportunistic attack. The next person might not be so lucky.
 
I was once cantering along a deserted sandy beach on a hot day when I spotted a lone walker in the distance. As I eventually drew level, I realised it was a middle aged, bearded walker in socks and boots, rucksack, hat and NOTHING ELSE.

We bid each other a cheery good day and both carried on our merry ways

QR - tbh, this all sounds like another bad stag night/university clubs ritual. They do all kinds of stuff in the societies here to inaugurate (?) the new kids.
