While I sympathise with the bikers’ safety issues, might I point out that 90 per cent of those same bikers have no concerns over other people’s safety.

As they come out of ‘the camber bends’ they ‘open up’ on the straight at Coastguards Cottages and race through Jurys Gap at unbelievable speeds and with incredible noise.

They have no regard for the speed limit – currently still 30mph due to coastal works – or to the safety of children, the elderly and large numbers of dog walkers who take their lives in their hands to cross this busy road.

Maybe some thought for others might be in order.
