So if we are assuming that cheeky trails are “ok”, as Im sure most would, what we are suggesting is that bikers (or anyone else) should de-light and tiptoe past properties? I can see its only polite to not be rowdy and loud, but assuming they just rode through I cant see how lights would be a problem. 10:30 might be late, and it might lead people to poke their heads out and see what is going on, but I dont see why it has to be seen as a negative thing.
I had an elderly relative who didnt like exceeding 15mph in the car, while I couldnt fault her logic that “going faster makes her scared” I also couldnt drive her home down the motorway at 15mph. Sometimes elderly people get scared over minor things, it’s unfortunate, but so long as it isnt rare or malicious it’s hardly the end of the world.
