MAG is encouraging its 10 000 individual and 40 000 affiliate members to support MCN’s ‘Reclaim North Wales’ ride out on Sep 13 aimed at reasserting our right to use public highways without undue police interference.
MAG is well aware that there are irresponsible riders out there but feedback from our members persuades us that the police response to the problem they represent is disproportionate and unfairly interferes with the sensible majority.
Some voices have suggested closing national parks to motorcycles altogether, a move that would signal a drastic departure from moderation and reasonableness.
MAG urges all taking part in the ride out to exercise special care, as a serious accident would be a terrible home goal for the riders’ movement as well as a tragedy for anyone injured.
