Oil spread on roads around Alston - SV650.org

Geodude · 15-07-13, 07:55 AM

Just a heads up for anyone riding up to or around Alston/hartside cafe. It appears that some muppet my be purposely spreading a large amount of oil on the bike roads around the Stanhope area (a689) and a few other roads around there and a few reports of bikers coming off. Police aware and a few warning signs up. Keep your eyes open and spidey senses on if your around the area guys.

Cant understand if its done for the reason of injuring bikers

there's some odd folk about. Ride safe.

muppet isn't strong enough

If someone got killed it could be a murder charge

Stay safe

One report said a lad had an off and a fight with a barb wire fence which cut his neck

could have been nasty.

This has happened before on the drop from Hartside to Penrith.
Mud and/or oil deliberately spread by a farmer.
Will bump that thread.

Cheers puny, there's talk of it on county durham bikers farcebook page too with a few pictures.

Muppet is not strong enough

Find out who is doing it and treat them with the same respect .

You wouldn't think Police HQ is just outside Penrith on A686, would you?

you'ed have to hide up to catch the perpetrator.

I'm fairly sure I read that something similar had happened on the cat and fiddle a few years back. Either way, its a disgusting act, and I hope whoever was responsible gets everything coming to them.
