WE have a great many motorcyclists locally, as evidenced by the packed Tuesday nights on Poole Quay.
We also have a major problem of arson causing immense damage to our valuable heathland.
I can’t help thinking that our motorcycling community could be an invaluable resource in protecting the heath.
If you ride an off road bike there are few opportunities to ride off road legally.
Can we not investigate some sort of authorised access to responsible riders so that the heath can be monitored for both fire-starters and the detection of fires at the earliest possible stage?
