We were stuck in traffic (that they caused) coming back from Orient near the turn to Pic Paradise. They were extremely loud, riding crazy, on one wheel and most had no helmets.

There were well over 150bikers roaming the roads on both sides of the island, some of them with no numberplates, most of them for sure without insurance, one wheeling and speeding like crazy.
