September 25, 200915 yr "We contact individuals involved in accidents which cause damage to our property directly because it gives them the option of putting it to their insurers or paying for it themselves if it's a minor claim and they don't want to affect their no-claims bonus." It's not your property, it's OURS. WE pay for the road out of our taxes. If liable, the bill should go to the sheep owner. Technically, compensation should also be paid by the biker to the sheep owner for his sheep.
