Ban hedge cutting next to cycle paths!

Went out tonight on my own for a short blast with the slicks on. I'd forgotten how much smoother on the tarmac they are as its a few months since I had them on. Rather foolishly as it turned out I decided to cut across an old track about half a mile long to join up with another road and guess what..........yip.....somebody had done a bit of hedge cutting along the track and scattered the usual array of prickly tyre busters everywhere. Luckily I'd remembered to take a spare tube (and tyre levers) but if I could have caught up with the phantom hedge cutter I know where I'd have stuck the thorn I pulled out my tyre..........
