Motor bikes, Dunfermline to Clackmannan cycle path A constant problem keeping a refuge like a cycle and walking path free from motorised traffic. The pests have had a resurgence due to cheaper electric bikes (proper motorbikes, not assisted pedalling).
The path was busy today with families and lots of young children.
