I'll put my hand up to also being a MAG member, albeit not an active one. I think it is worth my yearly membership fee to know that some the money goes towards helping to keep an eye on motorcycle related legislation and having someone lobby the right people.

The BMF seems to have lost its way as regards effectively looking after our interests and are still in repairing damage within their own organisation after internal fighting.

Make no mistake, the future of motorcycling as we experience it is shaky and the bureaucrats of the European Union are those most likely to make motorcycle use of all kinds even more difficult for us riders.

These are without doubt real issues! Biking as I have known it for 40+ years is under serious threat. This link has details and links to the EU documents (heavy going like most bureaucratic writing).

I should write that I too am a member of MAG.
