MAG protest: EU hands of biking
« on: 23 September 2011, 01:57:11 pm »
MAG are organising a protest regarding EU legislation that will effect ALL bikers (compulsory day-glo, no modding etc.). Essentially it's a nationally coordinated 20 minute go-slow on UK motorways at 1 pm on Sunday the 25th of September. There are multiple meeting/start points around the country and this could easily be incorporated into one of the last ride outs of the "Great" British summer.

Biking is about the Journey NOT the Destination...
