Hi
Could you please tell me if these lines are natural? Any suggestions are welcome.
As we reached the end of the road, we saw a few dozen young and middle-aged men burning tires as some kind of protest. They had strewn the path with stones/ rocks and were ready to hurl one at anyone who dared too close.
Thanks,
Tom
