Will post more details when I have them, but there is a bike demo being organised in Brussels on Saturday 1st October and the BMF, MAG and MCN are all involved.

Tickets for the ferry (Dover-Calais) cost me £35 return.

The demo is being organised to voice our opposition to the 3rd EU Driving Licence Directive.

I believe there may be something in MCN tomorrow.

Sorry but why the fuck cant they leave us bikers alone. Its fucking annoying how they keep trying to changing everything.
Bikers rarely kill other people where as car drivers often kill other people.

When are you going to see, you have to have a 500 cc car at 17, when your 18 take another test and you can have a 600cc car, when your 19 a 1000 cc car, and when your 79 you can take ur test again and have anything bigger.

Its bullshit if a bike is ridden sensibly it shouldnt matter what cc it is. If they want to be an idiot and kill themselves thats there problem and 1 less idiot on our roads.

My tickets from Dover to Calais were £35 return.

Quite common in Europe. In Belgium you can ride a 50 at 14 with no licence or number plates I think (and no helmet, including riding them on cycle paths).

All the best

Right, as promised I have more details about the Brussels demo and why we need to do it.

I am attaching for you perusal a copy of BMF Campaigner! as edited by yours truly, which gives some information about the 3rd EC Driving Licence Directive, and why we need to campaign against it.

Can't make the trip to Brussels but will copy (cut and paste) the letters to MP/MEP from the campaigner and send that off.

Found my MP from this link and
my MEPs from this link.
