A PENSIONER waiting to cross the road from Westleigh Lane Post Office tells me he was stunned to watch half a dozen off road bikers emerge from the 'red gates' and zoom past him towards Leigh -- all doing wheelies.
These yobs obviously have no brains.
I apologise to my motorbike-mad colleague Brian Gomm right here.
I have no argument with licit riders, but these young off road nuisances are a pain to everyone except themselves. I had to endure some of it over Easter and it's not on when people are trying to relax in their gardens.
The council and police have promised action to stop the pests, but it seems threats of confiscating machines makes not a ha'porth of difference.
Will it take someone being killed to drill some sense into them?
