Bikers make case in Westminster

The day saw nearly 50 riders and businesses attending a lobby meeting in Westminster and this was followed by an Associate Parliamentary Motorcycle Group reception attended by more than 20 MPs.

The reception was addressed by Department for Transport Minister Mike Penning who pledged to bring the motorcycle test review to a positive conclusion.

The Government has been conducting a review of the motorcycle test and there is an expectation that a properly revised, fully on-road test will start to be available from 2013.
