People ride bikes all over and if you let a toddler loose in an area where people are riding bikes then you too are as much to blame. As has been mentioned, off road bikes aren't exactly the quietest of things and IMHO 99% of riders are considerate to those around them.
I disagree with your statement entwisie, I have spent most of my life in the countryside and have had a couple of narrow escapes walking along bridleways and forest paths due to inconsiderate and under-age idiots thinking they are Barry Sheene!

Sensible off-road bikers go to venues especially made to challenge their proficiency and where they are most in danger from hitting the occasional rabbit! I fear that there are considerably more than 1% off-roaders that go barrelling down the pavement to reach the nearest field - - or one of the favourite venues, the canal tow path. Are you suggesting that families should be banned from footpaths to make way for morons?
