I need a collective noun for illegal dirt bikes.

[livejournal.com profile] realinterrobang suggested "a herd of iron horses", to which I commented that these are more like iron ponies than iron horses ... but at the moment I'm leaning toward a "pod" of illegal dirt bikes (though I can't put my finger on why).

(Hmm. They're loud, so maybe a "loud" word. A "crash" of illegal dirt bikes?)

Suggestions?

A smash of illegal dirt bikes? Covers all the possibilities.

A "roar" or perhaps a "blare"

A cacophony?

[livejournal.com profile] brynndragon recommends "a bad idea of dirt bikes"...

How about just a "loud?" It feels weird to say, and it promises confusion with the whole "a loud" vs. "aloud" bit, but... hey! As long as your coining a term, have fun with it!

Murder? Clowder? Evanescence? Sporgie? Welter?
