PC Massey from GMP’s Brinnington Neighbourhood Team said “Our team are committed to tackling the anti-social use of off-road bikes in Stockport. We recognise that the use of these bikes in an anti-social manner whilst wearing balaclavas intimidates law-abiding members of the public and we will continue to arrest those who flout the rules of our roads.”
