Off Road Motorcycles

On Monday 10th August officers from the Moorside neighbourhood team made to Goshen playing fields ( Redvales ) responding to numerous reports that off road motorcycles were driving around the playing fields putting members of the public at risk. upon arrival 4 motorcycles made off towards the pathway at the rear of the fields, however one motorcycle rider decided he fancied his chances by returning to the playing fields, after a foot pursuit with the motorcycle PCSO Fox & PC Mason managed to corner the motorcycle in a section of the field leading to the driver abandoning the bike and making off on foot. However our response colleagues were waiting on the other side of the river and swiftly detained the male leading to his arrest for numerous offences.  driving any motorcycle in public areas without valid insurance or riding in an anti-social manner will likely lead to your bike being seized with riders facing certain prosecution.
