Wonder if any ladies and gents could help. Is it one flash for watching and two for playing?

Strines railway station on my local ride is apparently northern dogging capital.

Are mountain bikers welcome at these events?

1 flash is "bumped the light stalk with my arse"

2 or more is a snagged item of clothing (or, just possibly, orifice 😯 )

mtb welcome only if you encirlce the group with lights off and then all go to full beam simultaneously

I thought multiple flashes were to tell your mate in the car up the road that someone else is approaching on a bike….

The doggers I ride past on my commute in the mornings are all gay. It's interesting from a purely inquisitive point of view but don't really retain my attention.

I'm sure they'll love it if they catch you peering through their window with a headcam on…. 😆

Don't see anything wrong with dogging. I'd even watch. Why not?

I think the jump from laughing about it to watching isn't a far one for mountain bikers on a night ride. Trust me, if I was with you I'd ask the people 'mind if we look'?

Not sure what response we'd get or the etiquette of dogging itself?

Hora, you're just saying things for effect now aren't you?

Been quite light on 'rocking Fiestas' this year, normally seen one or two nekkid arses pressed up against a window by now, but this year, not a thing…

I always keep a copy of the old testament handy incase i come across some doggers and feel like doing some denouncing.

Err no- I'd love to see some action! Its not a hobby I could get into but for passing enjoyment why not?

We'd all get a thrill from it like boys peeping into changing rooms I just don't think I could be bothered with it as a full-blown hobby. A bit like a bloke hiring a bike to ride Llandegla but thinking 'cant be assed with mountain biking'

I believe loweys had some experience (non-participating) this year, ask him about it 🙂

Don't see anything wrong with dogging.

I do. Viewed from a position of "We're all men of the world here, yadda yadda", then it's not grossly offensive.

However, view it from the position of someone like my mum, who is very ignorant of these things, and it's pretty grim. She goes to the woods to walk her dog. She doesn't expect to find the car park to be full of cars containing single blokes looking a bit leery. As a result, you get publicly funded amenities become no go areas for a lot of people. It's antisocial.

I see em quite alot. The ladies are not what you would want to view IMO. Saw a proper porn shoot last month aswell, she was a bit rough TBH but well decked out..

tron if it happens at night/dark I don't see a problem.

(I doubt your mum walks her dog in the dark on her own).

In the grandscheme of things its a million miles from Prostitution. I usually ride through/under Picadilly station to get to my gym and I've been shocked at how young the street walkers are (daylight/5pm). Turns out one of them was 14yrs old: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-10844915

It doesn't happen solely during the hours of darkness. Round our way, it happens in daylight too.

My view is that if you want casual sex, there are plenty of ways for people to get it. There's no need to solicit it in public places, which effectively excludes others from the legitimate use of the amenity.

That, I concede is wrong.

I think there are far more anti-social users of public amenities, what about those who have picnics and don't clean up afterwards. Only last week I was enjoying a picnic at a local beauty spot and some slovenly, messy eater had left mayonnaise all over the picnic bench…

Oh God, no… Please tell me it wasn't… :o(

The main problem with Strines road train station is that its pretty much at the end of one of my favourite downhills from the fox in.

Therefore any dogging activity can only be viewed at best ith a lightning sideway glance.

We live in an age of elf and safety. Where would I stand legally if I mashed my bike into a huddle of middle aged men with their chaps out?

Would I be to blame and would they put in a claim?

I would laugh or cycle on but everyone has their fetish and reward levels.

Who wants to catch STDs?

Self respect?

Or just thrill seeking sex?

(Where would I stand legally if I mashed my bike into a huddle of middle aged men with their chaps out?)LMHO, 😆

Frankenstein- Yes and the bloke on his little bicycle pedals off to have his meal for one with a beer back at his shared house?

Holier than thou by any chance?

We rode straight through a group of doggers out the back of Wildpark Brighton earlier this summer. Didn't stop for a look but the fact that they had kids there with them i found to be very disturbing 😯

Dogging is 'so last season' seagulling is where it's at, it's 2010 ffs.

The only time I've ever seen Dogging was when on a video shoot. We arrived in the car park of some Abbey ruins at about 7.30am, car park was empty.
By 10.30 we'd finished the shoot, went back to the car and parked next to us was an old Mondeo and in the passenger seat was a fella going at it with a rather bored looking woman, he paused briefly to look at us as we loaded the vehicle, and just carried on. Odd thing was there were no other cars in the car park so why park next to another car?

couldgetacarforthat- with regards to insurance you should speak to the CTC.

I suppose it puts a new meaning to 3rd party?

**shudders**

i like to press my fully rigid against the window! 😯

Me a Saint? No, just married and the missus would cut my dick off and self respect.

Ditto. I still don't think we should look down on others lifestyle choices 😀

Am I becoming liberal in my old age? 😐

Never seen any of the above but the most disturbing thing I came across was a group of naked ramblers!

About 30 naked old people – I wouldn't have minded if they'd all been young and good looking.

Did wonder about the legality of it though. I thought public nudity was illegal? They weren't doing any harm, anyway.

tron if it happens at night/dark I don't see a problem.

(I doubt your mum walks her dog in the dark on her own).

They don't only do it in the dark. They don't only "prey" on people who want the attention and the only reason people can't walk their dogs in the dark alone in parks is because there's some dodgy people about making it unpleasant.

Several of my favourite kite/bike locations are dogging hotspots (goes with the territory, remote car parks I guess) and when there's the odd couple there getting it on it's hardly a problem, but when there's 4 or 5 cars full and an organised operation it's a different matter. It's uncomfortable to have to get changed/packed away next to a car where people are standing round the outside having a shuffle. It's unpleasant to get off the water, get changed in your car only to find some random ugly sod standing at your drivers window watching you get out of a wetsuit, and it's intimidating for my partner who often stays in the car to read while I surf and finds herself being propositioned by people with their bits out around the car.

Don't give me the "dogging is harmless" nonsense.
