Seen one similar like this in recent weeks in Hillsborough and Pitsmoor... The one in Pitsmoor mounted the pavement at one point.

There were a few similar young lads on off road motorbikes with no lights coming down the road towards me (on my side of the road) last week in Walkley.

 

I managed to avoid wiping any of them out, but it was mostly due to the new street lights that I saw them in enough time to stop without causing any hazard to anybody else until they had gone past. I didn't think that getting out of the car to remonstrate with them was in my job description that day.

I used to get the same sort buzzing my classroom when I worked at Springs in the mid-90s. Balaclarvas, nimble, small motorbikes, a nightmare for the police to catch.

 

It seems that their anti-social behaviour is spreading to nicer areas now.

Was that just the other teachers? :)

No me neither - as I drove along crookes road they came down one of the side streets ahead and at one point they were about a foot of my bumper so just pulled in and they drove past and down towards Walkley.

If you don't have one, buy a dash cam. You can get a really good one for about £90. If people like this collide with you, you can bet that a couple of months down the line, they'll have a NWNF company onto you, and this can seriously damage your car insurance.

There were some odd ones, so you might be right. I could tell you a few stories:cool:

 

I was amazed at how lawless the area was. I grew up in sheltered Dinnington, you see:D

Probably in the past jordan, but nowadays, since the suing days exploded, no farmer in their right mind would allow it

I went to a track last year, can't remember where it was though! There were some tiny kids on the junior track, one looked younger than your son, must have been about 6, on a small bike, he kept stalling it, bless him.
