joe ox 2,547 Posted January 29, 2020 Report Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) I remember watching this about 35 year ago, I still use a bike to this day to start getting my dogs in shape because of it, shows lamping rabbits with the dog and shooting roosting pheasants on a night in the last parts.
