You should write a book, Ems. I would buy it.

BS about your bike though. Can't believe you need to pay 150 quid to get it back.

Not familiar with the laws of riding a motorcycle on open fields but if you was breaking the law then you was breaking the law, sorry for being an old miserable tw@t but where i live there are loads of idiots on dirt bikes, or should i say road bikes with faring's and lights knocked off "im not saying your one" but these police up our way have there work cut out to get these off the road.

On another note, would I be right in thinking that a quad bike with no licence plate shouldn't be on a public road? :bear:

In Bramley it is, with the roads thick with snow and parents walking their kids to school a couple of weeks ago we had idiots on quad bikes racing up and down Hough Lane :evil: :bear:

I left for different reasons. Though having lost a niece there to a local psychopath, I do fear for the rest of my family still living in LS13. Last time I was home, my 80 year old dad had a knife pulled on him by a 13 year old, who dad had admonished for kicking the windows of bus shelter in. Glad I was there to disarm the little pillock and warn him off with a kick to the nuts. I was happy the bus arrived tho, and took us away before the kid came back with his brothers and dad. :shock:

ArmleyWhite has had a lot to do with cleaning up his neighbourhood - where police and residents have worked together to try and prevent crime and local violence. It is a losing battle though.

See the O/P - pigs spending time on summat SO petty as a lad dirt tracking, when real crime is rife on the streets. :duno:

you may see it as petty but I bet local residents don't. Unregistered bikes can cause mayhem in neighbourhoods or even open areas. Trouble with allowing such bikes to go unchecked is that they seldom stay on the fields and invariably end up revving idiotically illegal loud engines in built up areas.

Another factor is that majority of people don't want to get involved and just whinge. Speak to the local anti social behaviour unit and they will give all the relevant info on how to help stop the mindless minority from ruining what the majority have.

Those that keep running away from it just help to perpetuate the spread of it all in the long run.

Scroats who ride round on stolen bikes and ride near kids are the ones who want nicking!
You have to understand this "public" place has been used by bikes for as long as I have lived in the area.
Just looking at my notice today it says at the top "Has been warned previously in the past 12 months"
I dont so much as have a point on my provisional, coupled with the fact I stopped and was subject to an overbearing asswipe, I might have a case to get it back without an impound fine.

Oh the joys.

so where exactly does a "field bike" come from then?

if they make it harder to ride a nicked bike then less will get nicked.

they should have arrested you if you couldn't produced documents for the bike.


I have had bikes nicked for fields so I hope they crack down on it.
Every game I predict a 3 - 1 Leeds win, I am traditional like that.

Im sorry you had your bike/bikes stolen in the past, I have had them stolen also.Its a horrible feeling.
But to arrest anyone over riding a field bike in desolate land is stupid and harsh and wont fix anything other than a few hours stay in a cell. I didn't have to produce documents for the bike because the engine number proved it was legit.
Its not all black and white out there, when you have an estate full of lads bored to death because they cant get a job and they have a LEGIT field bike and huge fields to ride in I'd say it's BS to be honest. A warning, followed by fine and taking the bike is the sensible way to go about it. If I get it back today I will stand up for my self as they have leaped TWO codes of conduct in dealing with me.

When you think about it, its like driving round and your insurance runs out, the cops slams in to the side of your car and drags you out of the seat and flaps his arms around like big bird on redbull. Bullshit.

Have to say I back the police on this.
There are so many people riding loud pieces of crap and most of them cant be road legal.
They do my nut in, they ride erratically and they often have accidents or cause accidents.

Even if they are used where they may be more appropriate, its just ruining the countryside by making tracks all over the place, causing a hazard to walkers or people that live in the rural parts and noise pollution to one of the few places people can find solitude nowadays.

Can understand both sides to an extent but there are other things people can get up to or you know.. ride a push bike.
It can be very fun, cheap, better on the environment, people wont be bothered, you wont get stopped by cops & you actually will be healthier for it.

Im in farsley which is no doubt not as bad for it as bramley but still a neighbor over road is always at it and there's a local idiot always riding around who just the other day crashed into a park car, I only know from a friend.. fortunately I am too high up in farsley to be in his path.


Now my rant is over. :lol:
