Message for motorcyclists on Datchet Recreation Ground

Posted on September 18, 2026September 18, 2026 by ecwlarcombe

The use of motorcycles on Datchet Recreation Ground is prohibited by legislation that includes local by-laws prominently displayed.  There is no excuse for your behaviour.  Furthermore riding through the children’s play area is dangerous and unforgivable.  The image below may be out of focus but that same image clearly records your collision with a steel post that obviously jumped out in front of you.  You then picked up your mate and travelled along the Horton Road.

Please note that I have passed crystal clear images to the Police.
