I didn't see any wildlife of note on yesterday's 100km, which is just
as well as I did see about 50 shotgun wielding strategically placed
around a field, and a few with flags. It's always in the same part of
the ride every year. They call it sport. But what do I know, I'm from a
town.

In the Overton/Whitchurch/Micheldever area?

sort of; I think it's near Grain Farmers, a drop down into a valley.
I'd like to know what country animal pests they are that need to be
shot on the same Saturday every year.

If so I come across them regularly and have had a few minor contretemps with
them.

with guns? you're brave ;-)
