Sorry to be controversial but if they're sticking to the field and the noise is only during the day - you could defo be called a killjoy.

Where I used to live there were loads of kids with quads - what annoyed me was that the entrance to the moor that they rode on was at the end of my street and they used to go at some speed up the street when there was little kids playing!!

that they're parents are letting them out with protective gear - do they not read the news.

If they're Crimbo presents hopefully the novelty will wear off in a couple of weeks.

i agree sb, sometimes i dont want to be a kill joy but i dont want it in my street either. lol. Hard one really.

moljam · 03/01/2008 15:32

It depends how loud it is.
During the winter it wouldn't bother me too much as all the windows are shut but when the weather's nice it drives me mad.
We had this kid last summer with a quad bike roaring up and down the garden two doors down all hours of the day. One day it went on for 6 hours. It's so inconsiderate- no way I would allow my kids to disturb people's peace in this way.

moljam,
Who owns the field? Do they travel on roads or paths to get there (that is where the problem is really).

I'd ring the the 101 number.I know that if you legitametly let your land for motorcross,you are only allowed to do so on a few occasions a year.Purely because of noise nuisance.Their parents must be insane to let them ride without helmets anyway.

Goodluck
