To all those who actually want to have there say
about brook farm / known as lees brook fields,
About the bikers who ride up there and who use to ride up there,
where are we all suppose to ride our bikes?
i know full well, half the people who ride up brook farm fields known as lees brook spend half there time an money on there bikes,
I myself use to ride up them fields, from an early age up till a while ago, due to riding up them fields ive had my fair share of trouble, from neighbours an police, ive lost a few bikes which police have taken an crushed, ive been to court many of times, had my fair share or fines, had points put on my Licence , been band from driving a few times to,ive even had to pay for court costs!! Not only that, I've also lost out on all the time an money i've spent on bikes which police have taken, an still to this day im paying out due to points ect,the list goes on!!
i know there is a few police officers on the beat in our local area, why not save money? an put the money to better use?
Why dont all the people moaning! ringing police, complaining about it all, come over to the fields, have a chat with us? go out an get to know us/them? maybe they will realise they have interests an hobbies an they was young once!
its not just adults an teens up there, its people treating there kids on little bikes / quads, would they rather kids/adults hang out at shops? cause trouble? smash stuff up? or just being a General nuisance?
which would you prefer??

I have spent the last few days thinking about every fine and every bike I lost to the crusher while just trying to find a place to ride. The silence from the people complaining is loud but I am still working behind the scenes to find a way for us to be heard. We deserve a spot to enjoy our hobby without the constant fear of losing everything.

Seeing this much support for our riding spot reminds me that I was not alone in feeling pushed around by the system. It feels like the tide is finally turning and people are starting to see the real human cost of these fines and seizures.

total waste of police time. they have way bigger problems to deal with than some lads riding on a field. sort it out and give them a place to use!
my brother used to go up there all the time. it keeps them out of trouble and gives them something to focus on. leave them alone.

ridiculous that there is nowhere local to take the bikes. kids need somewhere to go instead of being stuck inside on computers all day. let them ride.
