They were all over Orphanides/McDonalds off the motorway too
Surely they should have been at school
Look like a swarm of flies!

Were you that woman that couldn't park her car?  |
Sorry Grump, misread your post!

I know it's a recent tradition to ride round at the end of their final year at school usually after they get their results but I thought that was at the end of May ~ or it has been in recent years .
Other than that explanation I can't really think of another reason

That was me!!! I was there 10.30am trying to get my car washed, killed time for 1.5 hours and gave up. Drove away with my muddy car!
I tried to get on to the seafront road near the 4 Seasons but the bikes kept coming despite the red lights and I had to wait for 3 green light changes.  |
