MAG

Post by fossie » Wed Jun 28, 2023 11:04 pm

Did you know that MAG ( motorcycle action group ) is 50 yrs old .
How many of us are members?
Aren't they just a bunch of the great unwashed going on about helmets?
What has been achieved with their help ?
How can they help us now a days eh?

Well 100bhp law fought, no leg protectors , which would have proved a killer literally! Type approval would have stuffed us with no customising which includes aftermarket exhausts.. Hi viz vests not compulsory . M/C's can use bus lanes in many cities ...

Fighting ULEZ inmost cities , helping police with theft of bikes , getting m/c exempt from the ridiculous date for EV vehicles which can never be reached ..getting M/ c recognised as the solution to congestion ..mostly caused by politicians and ULEZ anyway.

Cracking Rallies .. ;)
