Those horrible noisy quad bikes/ATVs and ordinary bikes have been out in Lower Sydenham several times over the last couple of weeks and are out now a I type this. They seem to hang out in the industrial estate. The other day I saw them doing wheelies etc up and down the road. I'm surprised people living nearby don't complain.
I guess we will have to put up with them for the rest of the summer.
They've been around for as long as I've lived in Syd which is coming up five years now. When I lived just on the corner of Kent House Road and Sydenham Road they were out all night most nights just doing laps down Kent House Road, up the High Street and eventually coming round again. Really annoying. Having said that, I've seen them doing wheelies and that in the industrial estate when I've gone down there to tend the allotment and I personally have no problem with that as long as they're being relatively responsible.They're just bored kids, innit.
If it's the same people, then they've been around the Penge/Beckenham area too. I saw some idiots racing down Beckenham Road near Kent House a few days ago.

And again yesterday, or possibly the day before. One very flat, broad-looking quad bike.
