Off-road and illegal bikes

Good afternoon,

We’ve had an increase in reports of off-road and illegal bikes being used in our area, often on public roads, footpaths, parks, and open spaces. This behaviour can be dangerous, cause nuisance, and put both riders and members of the public at risk.

We have been proactively targeting these issues and as a neighbourhood team we have seized several e-bikes within Pendle and continue to do so on a daily basis.

🚫 Please remember:

You can also report these issues to me directly on this site and if able to, I will take direct action.
