    No respect for anything – people, property… what kind of adults will these young men make and why do they keep acting up like this? They need to learn some manners and respect for other peoples belongings and hard work.

    • Terry says:

      Gang “Terri”. It’s called a dry run…………………………………….

    • Changing Status says:

      With all respect Terri, at 20 years old, i think they can be considered adults now.

  2. Lol says:

    • Terry says:

      • anonymous says:

        old folks haven’t done a damn thing? What have the youth done for bermuda aside from turn it into one big mess! ‘ole folks’ don’t know anything huh? They are definitely what bring tourists to the island not some jacked up ‘youts’ tearing up golf courses on their bikes! Respect your elders!

    • drock says:

      Then let em ride on ya property n tear it up!

  3. Not Funny says:

    Disgraceful and Disgusting!

  4. Liz says:

    Gimme a break—these idiots need jail time. If they need something to do, then why don’t they race at Southside?? They’re just delinquents with serious problems—if they catch them, stay tuned,you are guaranteed to be reading their names in the paper over and over again for other crimes, until they hit the big time and go to the big house. The sooner they end up there, the better for the rest of us.

    • Unknown says:

      Jail time? Really? It’s a big difference to race down south side & just riding. Racing Is more then having a bike. Need money for memberships, gear, and parts for the bike.

      Other then assaulting the man, give em a break. Not doing anything major.

      • Disgusted says:

        Oh please—this is exactly how it starts—downplaying the antisocial behaviour—they’re just kids, no big deal, etc—fluff it odd and then everyone acts surprised when they get busted for something worse.

      • No kidding says:

        Not doing anything major except ripping up private property with motocross bikes!

      • Shorta ranks says:

        Typical. and when it grows you will be the first to say….how did we get here? Today an old man. Next an old woman. Then you.

      • Down de Road says:

        @Unknown are you serious? what if they hurt one of your parents or grandparents or even you damn idiot??? not doing anything major. These thugs are a disgrace to this country. THEIR PARENTS SHOULD BE WHIPPED FOR RAISING SUCH ANIMALS!!! You included……

    • Shorta ranks says:

      Jail time. It is private property so they should not be there. They want to do as they please. We cannot condone that type of conduct anywhere. If we do, and some sound like they want to, we will have anarchy. Then you will wonder how we got there and the liberal ones who talk all of this nonsense will not be found to help. They quickly disappear and smoke their marijuana.

    Horizons or Belmont?

    • 1minute says:

      Horizons is in Paget
      Belmont is in Warwick
      Don’t they have security – when I pass the entrance early in the morning, I see what looks like security people…
      Isn’t Government renting it for the nurses? So shouldn’t they be protecting it?

      • BermyGurl says:

        They don’t go through the entreance. they are coming from the back side off the Tribe Road. It is really annoying listening to it as well as they ride around for hours.

  6. Not surprised says:

    Not surprising in the least ..The belief of entitlement is so deeply ingrained now.
    These fools have no respect for anyones property or laws .. it’s their right to do whatever they want.

    Over the years there’s been much damage done to farm land around the island and on Port Royal Golf Course that I can remember.

    If these idiots live long enough and make the right life choices to ever own their own property , I’m sure they’ll welcome eveyone who wants to destroy what they worked for.

    My wishes are for the golf course employee .

  7. Star man says:

    Damn feral children! Just like de chickens; up to no good!

  8. I guess says:

    I know that was not a member of the Bermuda Moto-X Club. Cause they ain’t that Stupid!!!!!!

  9. wood says:

    some piano wire tied between two trees at neck height would solve the issue!

  10. jumpup says:

    take a picture of these fools so they can be identified held accountable. Tearing up private property and then assaulting someone for trying to stop it…. jeeze what a mindset.

    On the flip side… if I was 55 yrs old I wouldn’t be confronting a 20yr 6’2″ 200 lbs man. Call the police…

  11. Southampton says:

    Not mature people.
    Time for these guys to receive a real bust ass.
    Think they are tuff? Do not compare to the U.S.
    Stop pretending Big Time Tuff Guys. You are just
    children.
    Southampton.

  12. Think about it says:

    They need to euthanize the lot of them because thats all they are is damn animals.

    And before someone starts screaming about racism, I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: Show me a white, filipino, sri lanken or Portuguese kid getting in serious trouble, and I’ll retract my statement.

    • Bruce says:

      Hilarious…

    • bermy$hotta says:

      @ think about it – Der have been. Wats ya point?

      • Think about it says:

        @bermy$hotta- You prove it. I can’t recall more than maybe a couple white boys being in trouble in the news going back YEARS. Yet every time I see someone being accused of a crime or being found guilty they usually have a 3 or more syllable name, ending in an “ay” or “oh” sound Lol

  13. The Iceman says:

    Damn idiots the lot of them including the ones who support their actions. No brains

  14. navin johnson says:

    they were probably all wearing dark visors….did I read it right that someone one actually said “other than assaulting the man”? got to be a joke….although the injured party is 55 years old and we seem to have no shortage of older men so what the hell assualt away…..

  15. Give me a break says:

    What?? This must be an error! Black men committing crimes?!?! Unheard of! My dear…. I thought they were all in church and being good parents at home with their children and working or trying to get employment or educating themselves rather than disobeying the law. I am so shocked. I guessed that’s what happens when you are oppressed in a country run by other black people with many many black business owners and opportunities and programs being formed to help you because you are ‘poor black men’.

  16. consquences says:

    BMC members understand that to ride their bikes anywhere othe than South Side Moto Park in not allowed and they risk losing their membership in doing so.

    Anyone that has information should report them to the Police immediately and the Police should also contact the President of the BMC

    Many times the owners are not members and use the cycles in an unauthorized manner creating a bad name for the BMC

    These bikes are dangerous and could prove deadly if ridden by someone that does not have the proper gear or training

    This is coming from a member of the BMC
