A group of motorcyclists were confronted by local residents when they parked up in a rural Welsh town during the lockdown.
One had travelled more than 120 miles from Birmingham to meet up with friends at their haunt at West End Cafe in the historic market town of Llandovery, Wales.
The man filming the scene questioned why they had come out during the lockdown when only essential travel was allowed.
He slammed them for "endangering the lives of the community".
In the video, the resident can be heard saying: "I've come here to tell you to disappear.
"If you bring Covid-19 into our town by your f*cking mass movements and my father dies because he comes into contact with someone you've been in contact with - that's why it's a lockdown you doughnuts

They did it at the weekend up the coast from me, group photo all huddled together.
Bikers are not the smartest bunch, I didn't notice a Harley anywhere.
Maybe they were Police and it was essential travel :doh: Some people just not taking this mess very seriously :furious:

The Harleys were either still on the way or broke down en route. :whistling:
Why is the "local" in the coffee shop serving them, and allowing them in his premises?
Erm, I can`t defend the idiot bikers, but I can`t help but wonder why the coffee shop was even open, given the lockdown rules...... :whistling:
You need to be Welsh to understand it.

Me too
@DP1400 but there seemed to be some let out whereby coffee shops and food stands didn't seem to "qualify" as cafes. Not sure why, same as happened in this thread happened at a few biker spots in the SE. The subsequent lock down has now stopped that.
Same here Barmy, dont understand why some coffee shops closed and some business as usual.
Never let the chance of death get in the way of making a couple of quid :whistling:
The road we live on is a nice bike road and plenty of bikers ride it, usually has a bit of traffic on.......well not for the next month.
Some fellas disregard the 100kph speed limit but can ride. Others like Mr Harley No Mufflers figure they can break the lockdown while letting everyone within a 5 km radius know what a knob he is. Most bikes sound like shit sitting on the limiter...... this bloke has perfected it, wonder if he knows there are another bunch more gears to use !!
The guy needs some time in the cell if he won't stay home.
Col, he gets around. Rides past my house also. Shakes the glasses on their shelves.
