Walking home along a cycle/footpath between Morecambe and Lancaster last week I was knocked flying by 2 scrotes (looked like school leavers) riding a mountain bike with the adapter motor thing on it. One was on the seat and the other on the cross bar. I was on the pedestrian side and just minding my own business but they pointed the bike right at me and knocked me on my arse then started kicking me! Called me “fucking old rat” (I’m 53!!!). My crime was not jumping into the hedgerow out of their way and the fact they weren’t on the cycle side meant nothing to them.
They just don’t give a tiny fuck about anyone or the consequences of their actions. I’m now too scared to walk along that path. The police have said they’re going to be putting security cameras up but they won’t be constantly monitored.
Never thought I’d be scared to walk about in daylight….
