  1. Honestly..being told off like that is alot more scary then being yelled at.

    Its like..you don’t want to yell..because then you look like a dick

  2. STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM
    Nobody rides a bike on my watch

  3. If it’s a bridleway then the bike has every right to ride there. Depends what the land is designated as.

    Editing to add the actual law, considering people are down voting because they just don’t like it, not because it’s wrong:

    The 1968 Countryside Act section 30 introduced the right to bicycle on bridleways, provided cyclists
    give way to walkers and horse riders.

    The Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006 (NERC), section 68, then enabled ways to be claimed as restricted byways where it could be shown that there had been (usually) 20 years of uncontested cycle use.
    Cyclists have full highway rights on restricted byways. They are also open to people on foot,
    horseback or any other non-mechanically propelled vehicle (such as a horse-drawn carriage).

    Ebikes are legally classified as bikes (up to a certain power at any rate), not motorbikes, and so have the same rights as pedal bikes. The rights of motorbikes and high powered ebikes are different, although there are still many green lanes that they are allowed on (even though the locals complain, that doesn’t make it illegal).

    What this path is classified as will be recorded on the OS map for the area. I also doubt there are seasonal restrictions for nesting birds unless there’s some incredibly rare species in that area.

  4. Very respectful old gentleman, I am glad the biker wasn’t one of those arrogant youths who make things worse by being pedantic. Wish the world was more like this, respect for fellow humans.

  5. As a Brit, I can tell you this is a typical extremely uncomfortable angry telling off in my area, you know you’ve done wrong!

  6. You just know old Tony is storming back home to his telephone device to call the local nick and have it out with them

  7. “Yeah man fuck the police I don’t do what the establishment do I’m gonna ride some dirt scare some birds today” *ten minutes later* “the police told me to do it.”
