Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many incidents of illegal off-road bike use were recorded by the police in Stockport in each of the last five years.

The Home Office collects and publishes data on fixed penalty notices (FPNs) and other outcomes for motoring offences in England and Wales on an annual basis, as part of the ‘Police Powers and Procedures: Other PACE’ statistical bulletin. These data are published at Police Force Area level only. The most recent data, up to 2021, is available here:

However, the Home Office does not centrally collect data on incidents of illegal off-road bike use.
