Good point. Where's 'around here'?.
I can't remember that last time I saw a police officer or vehicle here in Northumberland, but legality is important to me.

Here in South Yorkshire the police have a dedicated off road bike team of around 12 bikes inc T7’s, who actively ride their bikes off-road around the areas where antisocial bike riding occurs, and inevitably find stolen bikes and Surons being ridden by people wearing masks etc
