Villagers in Bramcote have hit out at off-road bikers, describing the situation as 'really dangerous'. Nottinghamshire Police have been patrolling the area and other known hotspots to try and deter people from using off-road motorcycles in an illegal and dangerous manner.

According to locals, Bramcote Hills Park Woodland is a hotspot for bikers. Julie Adams, who usually walks her dog Heidi in the woods, says it can be dangerous.

“I’ve got a little dog and I was walking up Bramcote Woods and there was a lady with a little girl," she said.

The lady was really shaken up and the little girl was only three or four.
