Lunatic preaching in Cheddar Gorge

Is that fellow with the loud voice, the staff and the curious views about eternity often there? Strikes me as a good case for a water cannon.

And on another theme, what's with those tosspots in pink helmets riding their blasted motorbikes through the Gorge revving their engines and tooting their horns? Was there some kind of Homosexual Bikers Against Peace event taking place today, or are they also a regular feature?

You get charity runs by bikers now and then but many weekends it's little boys in their cars with extremely loud exhausts driving very fast up and down the gorge road. It's a wonder that none of the walkers have been injured or killed considering that much of the walking has to be done on the road itself.
In reply to deepstar:
Aha; thank you. What a pity they don't have a feedback form. A***holes.

Still, presumably at least it's only once a year.

Genuine LOL!...

On the subject of pink motorcyclists; invite them for a game of chess. I believe they love it.

Oh how I wish the gorge to be free of that bloody road.

oddly, the only time I've been to cheddar was a couple of years ago when it was closed to cars because of flooding. Very tranquil!

Why isn't this the name of a route as I initially assumed?

Get to work, Cheddar locals.

The lunatic preacher doesn't appear to have a facebook page.
In reply to duncan:

So I could. Thanks. I can also email Breakthrough Breast Cancer and let them know my views. Maybe a few of us could.

Anyway, the Facebook chap wants to know if I am 'one of the people we've annoyed in some way'. I can't have made my position clear enough. Unlike me. I'll have to try again.

Perhaps he should be directed to the Rock of Ages in Burrington Combe. There he would have some nice historical context and would irritate fewer people. Fewer climbers anyway.

What exactly is the problem here? You don't want road users to use the road or you're homophobic?
In reply to neilwiltshire:

I don't want 150 motorbikes roaring though beauty spots honking their horns. I don't know how to explain it more clearly. If you don't think that's antisocial, good for you.
