POLICE are hunting a cycle-riding sex pest who has exposed himself to women six times in the last month.

In the latest incident a teenager on a bike exposed himself to a 17-year-old girl on a footpath from Hygiene to Blackburn Road, Great Harwood.

He was white, aged 14 to 17, and was wearing a blue baseball cap and a blue jacket when he struck on Tuesday.

Officers are also investigating two separate incidents involving another woman 10 days apart and believe the offences are linked.

One happened on a canal towpath in the Dill Hall area of Church on Monday.

She recognised him as the same person she had seen 10 days earlier.

The youth was white, aged around 15, 5ft 10ins tall and slim was riding a dirty, dark coloured bike with no mudguards.

A similar incident took place on the canal towpath in Clayton-le-Moors last week.

And in September a teenager exposed himself to two different women within five minutes in woodlands near Wilsons playing field, Clayton-le-Moors.
