Castlecliff residents have criticised unsafe bike riding after a quad bike rider died on Thursday.
Sonny Peke, a 38-year-old father, was killed in Hood St while riding a quad bike.
He was not wearing a helmet and died in Wanganui Hospital of his injuries.
As police inquiries continued, Hood St residents said people on quad bikes and motorbikes were often "hooning up and down the street".
"We're all sick and tired of the bikes hooning around the place here," Lynne Douglas told the Chronicle. "We get it a lot here. They belt up and down the grass."
