Bike tracks on the ice

The lifesavers from Telford posted a photo of bike track marks on the ice at Newdale Pool in Lawley on Saturday.

They said on Twitter: "It’s incredibly sad to see these tracks. Has nothing been learned from recent tragic events."

Four boys died when they fell through the ice at a lake in Solihull last weekend.

Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin councils and Ellesmere Town Council have issued pleas to people to stay away from the ice.
