Sir, – I read with interest Mr Lee’s letter (DST, Apr 24) regarding development in Osmotherley, especially his last paragraph regarding the introduction of problems not currently experienced – littering, vandalism, bikers, increased crime etc.

What grounds does Mr Lee have to infer that bikers are linked with littering, vandalism and increased crime?

This is just another biased view regarding motorcyclists, the majority of whom are decent law-abiding citizens.
