Posted: 14:53 - 26 Sep 2017 Post subject: MAG would like you to write to TfL |

And express how horrified you are about them being all discriminate against bikeys and that.
Presented without comment, although doubtless some MAGpies will infer nefarious intent.

This was going to be included in October's Network, however, the cut off date for this extremely important Consultaion is next Tuesday 2nd October so I'm brining it to your attention now.
Thanks, AG, Network Ed.
IMPORTANT................................................... Because if the following gets in, it sends a message across the entire country and will provide a free for all for every Council to penalise you for riding your motorcycle. If you want that then sit on your butt and do nothing, however, if you value riding without being super rich then please respond to the consultation, AG:-
Hi All,
Please encourage as many members to respond individually to the consultation about Mayor Sadiq Khan's proposals for the long term development of roads in London.
As this is the UK Capital, everyone is entitled to have their say about this 'Vision' but having read the whole thing through it looks more like a Nightmare to me.
I will be drafting MAG's official response – but it is crucial that the Mayor and TfL get as many individual responses from a biker's point of view as possible.
There are a few positive proposals from the Mayor regarding motorcycling – but his track record so far on delivering on his pre-election promises is appalling.
My personal and professional view of the situation is that rather than leading the way for TfL, Khan and his Transport Deputy, Val Shawcross are simply going to push TfL's long standing anti-biking agenda and try to squeeze motorcycling out of the Capital.
The main thrust of this strategy is to steal more road space from bikers and hive it off for exclusive use by cyclists or pedestrians.
Below is the link to the consultation page – and it is a good idea to send your comments by email, as well as via the website portal.

Urgh, I had a poke, but it asks the same vaguely worded multi-choice "How awesome on a scale of super-awesome to mega-super-awesome is the Khan Plan"? over and over and over again until I just gave up.
Which I imagine is the intention. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Completed the questionnaire. It's sickeningly pro-'everything I hate' but thankfully you have enough ranty boxes to vent in. ____________________ NSR125RR - ZXR750H1 - ZX9R E1 - GSF600S - GSF600SK3 - VFR400-NC30 - SV1000N - ST1100-R - CBR900RR-R - GSF1200SK5 - GSF600SK1 - VFR1200FA - GSXR1000K2 - ZZR1400 D8F

Glasgow's been threatening congestion or lezzer zones for quite some time. They have loads of bus-lane cameras and the Zil lane cameras from the Commonwealth so it really is only a matter of time. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
