    It is really unfortunately that you (your dog) have been violated by these little w@nkers, but they are just looking for you to retaliate. I know the first instinct is to sort them out but that’s just playing into their hands. Best bet is to report it to the police and let them deal with them, I fear that any other course of action will not produce a good outcome for you..., good luck, I hope it gets sorted.

    Sadly I don't think the police will have much interest, that's why the little scumbags act in the way they do, I totally agree that as much as retaliation feels right when they're winding you up but it'll be the innocent, tax paying recipient of their sh#t that will end up getting a visit from plod :mad:

    Keep a close eye on your dogs mate and defending them and yourself (reasonable force) isn't illegal but don't go out tooled up or you'll get nicked

    I think i may have an elegant solution non confrontational. I have two bikes, my brother in law doesnt live too far away and has his. my friend Jon lives a mile away and Sean about 8 miles away. I know they wouldnt mind me borrowing their bikes for an hour or two.
    I have multiple sets of bike gear as i suspect we all do. I only have 3 helmets here but it would be worth getting a couple of different amazon cheapies for it to me.
    I think perhaps a "different" biker every day who doesnt take off his helmet and merely has a gopro on and watches them for a week from the road by the park might do the trick.
    Im pretty sure the others wouldnt mind one evening of a multiple presence just to reinforce the message.

    I’m not so sure that the police would not be interested, it has to be worth a try. It is a public park after all....

    Which bit? “Jim’ll Fix It”, or his later years...

    That guy was creepy... When the stories broke - my first thought was ‘no shit Sherlock’.

    Walk away, walk the dog somewhere else for a week. They will move on,they weren't there 3 weeks ago and in 3 weeks time they will be a memory.

    Would be my advice.

    A bloke with one of those boom trikes was looking at Betty Blue, and said everything is wrong with it as a trike, I was speechless, what's your opinion?.
    Betty Blue, or the Boom, It's a stock photo but identical to the one he was riding.

    I dont understand the thinking that makes you want to make a trike look like that purple thing.

    Maybe one day, when you get so old that a Trike is better than sitting in a wheelchair.

    Neither for me - I like two wheels.. but if I had to choose it'd be Betty. Much more pleasing to the eye.

    He sounds like he’s ‘on the spectrum’ with some personality disorder. Normal people don’t slag off someone's pride and joy - not to their face...

    There again my bike gets insulted all the time for looking uglier than a bulldogs bum - and it’s often me calling it those names... it’s practical though.

    On the theme of misleading offers, I grabbed this photo at my local Co-op shop yesterday. The cashier wasn't too bothered when I told him
