Riding in streets

[cammalo]

Whats the deal with riding around on regular streets?
is it legal / illegal?
Where do most of you ride?

its illegal to ride on the street

well since there is no track around my area, we ride on a bike path going out of town the cops dont seem to care about that...they have seen us riding and aint done anything yet

[phillysno1]

yer its illegal but people do it, illegal to do drugs to but that dosent stop people. most kids around me have a pb and ride it on the streets cops drive by and wave

It's illegal to ride the bikes on any road or road related area, such as carparks, footpaths, bicycle tracks etc that is open to the public. For carparks, unless it is a private carpark that is enclosed and/or closed off to the public it's the same deal. Regulations have been changed that the engine sizes on pocket bikes can now be subject to the same offences and penalties as larger bikes/cars being unregistered, uninsured, unlicenced (for those without a bike licence). Each offence in NSW off the top of my head is around $550 each. Hope that helps out a bit for you.

haha yeah though its already been answered, no, its deifinitely .not. legal to ride pocket bikes on tha road. however it seems to stop few people... such as myself =D a friend and i were riding on a road, and sum random guy came up to us, flashed a badge at us, and started lecturing us and saying how much the fines are. i asked to see his badge again (because when i saw it it looked fake) and he refused XD WTF?!?!? randoms with k-mart badges telling us off! hahahaha

yeah anyhoo short answer=no =]
