Mass motorcycle lobby
Written by Em-J
The British Motorcyclists Federation (bmf) is calling on its 80,000 members to join a mass lobby
of parliament as part of its Riders Are Voters campaign.
The drive, a joint venture by main motorcycle organisations the British Motorcyclists Federation,
the Motorcycle Action Group, the Motor Cycle Industry Association and the Auto Cycle Union,
aims to highlight issues faced by motorcycling constituents on and off Britain’s roads.
“There are 650 MPs and roughly a third of them are new to the job. They may never have
discussed motorcycle issues before and neither will many established MPs,” said a
spokesperson for the bmf.
“This is a golden opportunity for all motorcyclists, bmf members or not, to have their say on any
motorcycling issue that is concerning them, from road conditions or bus lane use to the cost and
complexity of getting a licence.”
The lobby will take place on Monday 8 November. Motorcyclists who’d like to gather at
parliament next week are asked to register their details for free at www.ridersarevoters.org
