Now although these stunts are amazing.. REALLY AMAZING this is probably the reason we have stricter regs on the way from the .Gov

Poor SV + rider though.. thats like me hitting an elephant... ouch

The stunts are all very pretty but these kind of riders are the reason that bikers get bad press in my opinion.

Ah, well, the Ace is owned and run by an ex mounted policeman, so possibly a bit of a case of a blind eye now and again

The police also run Bike Safe from there so they must know this all goes on, and so do any locals driving that way.

Not saying I condone it, just I can see why it goes on.

I can see why it goes on, but surely they can find somewhere better than a public road to do it, an empty carpark or similar would be better surely?

The Ace in the summertime is a fun and dangerous place to hang out...everyone who goes there knows that.

Ive got video of cops stopping traffic for the stunters to do what they're doing and then wave the traffic thru when its safe again.

No the public road isnt the best place for this but its not like they organise it.. lads on bike, summer time heat, girls in leather...someone gonna show off and someone else is always gonna join in.

And hey i aint complaining when i go for lunch there some sundays...where else can i get lunch and a free stunt show 10 mins away from my house?

I think its fine, as long as they take responsibility when it goes wrong.
