PC Mike Hanscomb from the Road Policing Unit said: "When on patrol we were overtaken by a motorcyclist, who did not have a number plate.
"When we asked him to pull over and stop he did not and started to do wheelies in front of the marked police car.
"The driver also started to film himself while driving at speed in a 30mph zone.
"This kind of behaviour is totally unacceptable and put the public at great danger. Speed and dangerous driving are some of the fatal five driving offences that we are targeting.
"Those are offences most likely to contribute to death and serious injury on the roads."
