Beware southern parklands commuters

I've just seen this report on Adelaide Now about fishing line being tied between trees across paths, bridges etc.  Please be careful if you are commuting through the parklands - particularly the Greenhill Rd / Hutt St corner:

A whole bunch of us use this as our commute home from norwood and  i was wondering when this might happen. With so many people living in that part of the park now is someone unhappy about the CX race maybe? I have been yelled at for my lights being too bright!

If they're uphappy about the CX race they're stringing the wire up in the wrong park! So I doubt it.

With the IQ of the folk doing this, anything is possible!

We had this happen on a trail bike run around Robe a few years back, we were not impressed!

Absolute lowlife.

I wonder if it’s a deliberate act of an evil mind aimed at inflicting serious injury - or - an act of an immature mind not having thought about the consequences of such an act. Either way - it is incredibly nasty and callous.

Looking out for fishing line strung across bike paths will certainly take the enjoyment out of my rides through the parklands.

Do I recall something similar happening last year?

What a sad world we live in :-(

Thanks Adam for sharing this. I ride through this part of the parklands 4 days a week so will keep a lookout.
