Everyone enjoys going for a driver in the country. What better than on a sunny evening you decide to take your kids and wife for a drive to the local country park. The Bathgate Hills has been a country park for years, surround by open land and part forest. The roads intertwine with trees and open farm land. There is great views over not only Bathgate and on to the Pentland Hills. In the distance you can almost see all the way to Goat Fell on Arron.
Over the other way you can see the towers of the Forth Road Bridge and on in to Edinburgh. The kids are busy taking in the country side around them waiting on getting to the climbing ropes and slides in the parks main play area.
You set off down one of the narrow roads that lead deep into the trees and the play park beyond. As you make your way down the narrow country lane your wife looks out the window of the car. She wants to take in the sights of the road ahead and looks out over a small loch. You take the sharp bend and head down the steep road. Your wife gasps a little you think it must be something she has seen out the window and you look the way she is.
It that moment you see it just to the side of the road just behind the hedge row, a silver object. That is just sitting there waiting. The cars headlights picks up more of the silver object you can now see that it looks like a man, but no normal man it is about 7 feet tall. It is silver from head to foot. It stands up and looks across the road towards you. The car is moving towards it you are not sure if you should stop or go faster past it. You look around you then go faster, as you get near to it the man stats to run. You pick up speed and it shoots off into the distance it must be travelling at over 70 miles an hour.
You look at your wife and she looks at you both of you are not sure what you have seen. The kids in the back then speak “Did you see that?” “What was it?” “Look you can still see it run” It is at that point you know you have seen something very strange running through the Bathgate Hills.

We are not sure what this silver man could be. He has been seen s few times running through the trees and a cross fields. Normally he is seen just as it starts to get dark just as the sun sets. He has been seen near the top road that leads down towards the park.
Could he be from another world? Could he be from another time? We shall never really know until we catch he and ask. Loads of people that drive these roads at night now look out for this strange man running at 70mph.
