My good original poster, let us counteract this loss by trying our best to be refined gentlemen.

Not going to say he’s lying, but he’s not telling the truth. There is 0 chance the police told him to ride a motorised bike on a public footpath.
Two level headed, decent people having a mature discussion. It’s not often you see videos like this on Reddit 😃

And how are we losing people like this OP? Or is this your personal belief?
That “What?!” was him realising he had been betrayed
Maybe we’ll be like that when we’re his age
If you close your eyes he sounds a bit like Peter Hitchens
“You’re joking…” The sheer betrayal and defeat in this gentleman’s soul…
In the Nordic countries, riding an e-bike (assisted up to 25km/h) is the same as riding a normal bicycle. It’s basically allowed anywhere, except for where it’s expressly forbidden (pavement, motorway etc). Bike riders always have to yield to pedestrians, never the other way around.
The UK is a bit more complicated. What’s allowed in Scotland isn’t allowed in Wales, for instance.
Regarding wildlife and birds, they don’t really care if you are riding a bike or walking. The main difference is if it’s wet, bikes can churn the path to a muddy quagmire, which is highly annoying for people walking. Or scaring the living daylights out of an errant moose that didn’t hear you coming.
I don’t know that we are losing this. It’s a natural evolution for some middle class people to turn into this man when they retire and find causes to care about
He better not have stopped those birds breeding
Electric cars have been forced into society.
What justification is there for loud bikes to tear through forests for a single persons enjoyment?
As so often, others may well know more than me here.
Do we know whether the bike is a legal e-bike?
Do we know whether bicycles or any or all sorts are allowed on the track/ path?

Without knowing both, aren’t we all guessing?
What’s the charge?
Riding a bike?
Riding a succulent Chinese bike?
