23. The riders get chased off the vacant lots.

It starts in the vacant lots and ends up on the streets. Sort of a flash mob thing. When you get a large gathering the best the police can do is film and follow up. To chase would only get people injured/killed. Brazen and stupid.

The vacant lots and industrial areas could be dangerous and the liability could fall upon the lot owner. (Like people obey "No Trespassing" signs.)

The problem with the OP issue is in attacking the person. Be annoying but don't be stupid.
