Walked in the gentle rain and interesting cloud scape and saw a large dispersed group of cattle around the base of brown loaf hill. We did not get a chance to get close and do an individual inspection. We did see the bull however. We stayed on the track at about J24 and moved along the track to the east. We were able to see several small groups; some in front (W) of the hill in the open sandy area, some walking on the track and several widely dispersed in the scrub behind the hill.
While we were out one motorbike (scrambler) with no number plate was being driven at speed along the wide open track. 3 different riders were using it and they were starting at the top of Caesar's camp and following the wide track we were on and eventually driving through the cattle we were observing. Some sensibly scarpered off the track but otherwise were undisturbed. The bike was out last night as well and I think it was the same bike we saw on Sunday when the farmer was also inspecting the cattle. It seems to be a routine for this bike to be out in the evening in the week (Sunday it was morning).
