Whilst amusing this is a great example of what people end up doing through ignorance. They are about to go off on a footpath (there would be a gate if it was a bridleway) they end up destroying a fence when they could have passed the bike over the gate where the electric strand passes underground.DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone

This is why farmers have an aversion to people on their land. The right thing to do, given they seemed wholly incapable of salvaging the bike, would have been to contact the land owner for assistance.

WTAF is a 'fat' bike, apart from too heavy for a one-person lift over a fence. What a bunch of cretins.

It’s basically a bike with oversized tyres. Improved traction over rough ground and adds a bit to the suspension.

That clip shows that age is not a barrier to ignorance and bad behaviour.
I like the comment about 2 minutes in saying something to the effect I didn't think/see it was a fence.
What is 'amusing' is the way that people are prepared to post videos on social media about them being complete morons/badly behaved/breaking the law.
