    Vanishing Motorcycle Licence Entitlements - Not A Good Look For DVLA

    The Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) has confirmed that vanishing
    motorcycle licence entitlements are thankfully rare. MAG asked the DVLA
    questions following recent news stories of a motorcyclist being denied a
    licence for over three years thanks to a mistake they made.

    The story of the three-year wait to resolve a mistake and the
    compensation received by Paul Olsen was covered on a number of media
    outlets in early January. Coverage appeared in MCN, VisorDown, The Sun,
    and Metro. This coverage led to MAG receiving emails from concerned
    riders. The need for Mr Olson to resort to the Parliamentary and Health
    Ombudsman to get the case resolved is certainly not a good look for the
    DVLA.

    MAG's Director of Campaigns & Political Engagement, Colin Brown, said:

    "Unsurprisingly, losing your right to ride your motorcycle due to an
    administrative error is not a situation that riders want to face.
    Stories often surface of riders finding their motorcycle entitlement
    left off when their licence has been renewed. We thought it was
    reasonable, therefore, to contact the DVLA to establish how common a
    problem this is, and what a rider should do if they find this happens to
    them."

    The response from the DVLA states:

    "The DVLA has a range of measures in place to ensure our records are
    accurate, and mistakes are rare.... Since August 2019 there have been
    two cases where a driver has written in to the DVLA to lodge a complaint
    about an alleged missing motorcycle entitlement. Neither complaint was
    upheld."

    The letter also explained:

    "If a driver thinks that they are missing an entitlement from their
    current driving licence they will need to return their driving licence
    to, ODL Casework Team, DVLA, Swansea, SA99 1ZZ. The driver will need to
    include a covering letter which should contain what entitlement is
    missing, when the test was passed and provide the DVLA with as much
    information as possible along with any evidence they hold. We would also
    advise customers to take a copy of their driving licence for their own
    records before sending it in to the Agency. We will then be able to
    carry out thorough investigations of the enquirer’s driver record."

    Stories such as Mr Olsen’s are not new and often crop up on online
    forums. There was even an investigation carried out by the BBC’s
    Watchdog programme in 2009.

    In conclusion, Colin Brown said:

    “I have no doubt that similar stories will periodically appear. Of
    course, the rarity of these errors is what makes them newsworthy when
    they do happen. We do not know why the two most recent complaints were
    not upheld, and the delays in resolving the Paul Olsen case seem to have
    been unnecessary. The key is to check your licence and make sure you
    keep a copy of it if you ever need to send it back to the DVLA for any
    reason. We are happy to hear from any riders who have been personally
    affected, whether in the past or going forward. We are here to help
    riders maintain their access to legal and responsible riding.”

    News from the Motorcycle Action Group (MAG)

    MAG happy to suggest topic of next Transport Committee inquiry

    The Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) suggests a topic for the Transport
    Select Committee’s next inquiry. Iain Stewart MP published an appeal
    for ideas on 17th January. MAG says that the role of motorcycles in a
    multi-modal transport future has yet to be fully considered.

    MPs on the Committee want to consider subjects they may have never come
    across before, from people who are ‘in the know about innovations that
    deserve more attention’.

    Transport Committee Chair, Iain Stewart MP, said:

    “If you know of an issue that would benefit from Parliamentary scrutiny
    – perhaps something we've never looked at before – then we would warmly
    welcome your short proposal for an inquiry. We look forward to hearing
    your ideas.”

    MAG’s Director of Campaigns & Political Engagement, Colin Brown, said:

    “It may seem a bit late to point to motorcycling as an innovation. But
    we are clear that our preferred existing transport mode is not being
    fully exploited in the much-publicised multi-modal future of transport.”

    The MAG submission explains that current policy only promotes three
    favoured modal choices. The policy approach focuses on restricting the
    use of cars in favour of walking, cycling and public transport.
    Motorcycles do not receive any separate consideration. This is
    demonstrated in depictions of the sustainable travel hierarchy which
    routinely fail to recognise the existence of motorcycles.

    MAG argues that there is no nuance in policy terms to allow for
    disaggregating the unique flexibility and convenience that motorcycles
    offer. Motorcycles represent a way to reduce the impacts of cars whilst
    retaining the benefits of motorised transport.

    The proposal is that the Transport Committee firstly evaluate any
    current policy to facilitate motorcycling in the multi-modal future.
    MAG fully expects this to reveal that there is none. Therefore, a
    significant opportunity for progress in transport policy is being
    overlooked. The second step will be for the Committee to consider
    proposals to expedite a filling of the policy hole.

    Colin concluded:

    “The message is nothing new to us, but it is about time we saw some
    tangible policy. It is time to demonstrate that the message is being
    heard. It is all well and good Ministers saying warm words when
    challenged, but we are long overdue for some policy action. MAG will
    continue using every opportunity to promote what is obvious to us, but,
    apparently, a complete mystery to policy makers.”

    Do you care ??
    The Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) announces a new offer to help protect
    bikers facing the expanding ULEZ charge. MAG deal offers members a
    risk-free method to check if their older bike is compliant. MAG urges
    riders not to scrap serviceable bikes without first checking whether
    they are actually compliant.

    MAG fiercely opposed the ULEZ charge for motorcycles from the day it was
    first suggested. Motorcycles help reduce overall emissions by reducing
    congestion. MAG proved that the majority of pre-Euro 3 motorcycles are
    compliant with the actual emissions standard for exemption from the
    charge. Sadiq Khan relented and agreed to a system to allow individual
    vehicles to be tested for their actual emissions level and registered as
    exempt if they meet the standard.

    Pre-2007 motorcycles can meet the emissions criteria. If a bike
    produces less than the 0.15 g/km NOx limit Transport for London (TfL)
    has set, older bikes are exempt - as long as owners can prove their low
    NOx emissions.

    Many riders have since proven that their pre-Euro 3 motorcycle is
    compliant and registered for exemption from the charge. The individual
    testing of bikes could originally only be carried out at a single
    registered testing station. Now there are three, all charging £175 for
    the test with a £75 re-test fee.

    Situated close to Greenwich in South London, The Test Centre is run by
    Ian Wills. He has invested in a dyno and sourced a new exhaust gas
    measuring device. Bikes are placed on the dyno, run through the test of
    various drive cycles (which involves idling, acceleration and
    deceleration), and an average is then taken. Much like an MOT, the
    result is a straight pass or fail.

    Ian Wills (Director of The Test Centre) says:

    “Well-maintained, properly set-up and cared-for bikes stand a much
    better chance of meeting the standard and passing the test. If a bike
    passes the test, we upload the results straight to the TfL database and
    your bike is registered by TfL as exempt the next working day. We are
    finding most bikes are passing without any work.”

    Ian Wills is making a “no pass, no fee” offer to all MAG members. This
    means that there is no financial risk involved in checking if your bike
    is compliant. The £175 fee will only be chargeable if the bike passes,
    and there will be no re-test charge should a little work be needed to
    get the bike through.

    For more information, or to book a test for your bike, go to
    www.ulezbiketest.co.uk

    Not already a MAG member? – join here; it costs less than three days of
    ULEZ charges! The compliance test equates to 14 days of ULEZ charges
    and only applies if your bike passes the test.



    MAG is continuing to fight against the proposed expansion of the ULEZ
    charging zone. Sadiq Khan is determined to extend the zone to cover the
    entire London region in August this year. The plans have met huge
    resistance from voters and even many of the Borough Councils.
    The expansion will impact large numbers of additional riders, many of
    whom may only ever ride away from Central London on their motorcycles.

    You pipped me to the post Bikerman with the latest success for MAG! And not for the first time.

    Just in case anyone can't be bothered to read through the full report, basically if you want to ride in or through London your bike must be ULEZ compliant to avoid the charge.
    MAG has shown that many pre-Euro 3 bikes comply but they need to pass an emissions test, at a cost of £175 (with a £75 re-test fee), at the single testing station.
    Following pressure from MAG there are now 3 testing stations but the best news is that the centre near Greenwich is running a special deal for MAG members. There's a 'no-pass, no-fee' offer. If your bike fails you don't pay a bean and there's no re-test fee. The £175 fee is only payable when the bike passes.

    Of course all this isn't relevant to those of us that rarely frequent the capital on pre-Euro 3 bikes. However there will be some riders for whom the ULEZ charge means either a bloody big bill or a change to another form of transport. And don't forget that Sadiq Khan is about to expand the ULEZ zone.
    Of course, common sense says all motorcycles should have a free-pass in London and any other town where the council is planning to adopt a similar charge (and there are several). We are an insignificant minority in the eyes of governments and councils but fortunately MAG is actually doing something on our behalf to make them realise we exist and have a right to be heard. The least you can do is stump up £30 to help them make your life easier.

    News from the Motorcycle Action Group (MAG)

    Greater London MAG on the warpath over Islington parking charges

    Greater London MAG is set to meet Islington Council to oppose more
    motorcycle parking charges. Unannounced charges were rolled out in
    early February with no prior engagement or consultation with riders.

    Islington Borough Council rolled out a new £1 charge for motorcycles
    parking in the borough’s motorcycle bays in early February.

    The council claims that they didn’t need to consult because it was a
    change to existing charges. This is not true; previously it was free to
    park in bays in Islington. If you wanted to park outside of the bays
    you had to buy a resident’s permit. No changes have been made to the
    residents permit but a new charge of £1 a day for the bays has been
    introduced.

    The council did not publicize their intention to charge: instead, they
    buried the decision in a 300-page document on the council’s general
    finances. Motorcycle representative organisations were not contacted
    about a consultation. When Hackney consulted on their parking charges
    they received thousands of responses. Islington has confirmed that
    there were no responses to their process.

    GL MAG and Save London Motorcycling have already persuaded the council
    to rectify one flaw in the policy. Residents with motorcycles couldn’t
    use their passes in the bays and were unable to make block bookings for
    more than one day. This meant that a resident would have been paying
    £365 a year and having to get up before 8am every day to book a new
    parking session. GL MAG got Islington to back down and allow residents
    to use their passes, but MAG is arguing that this is a totally
    unacceptable way to treat their resident motorcyclists and people who
    ride to work in the borough.

    Further issues with the poorly handled roll-out saw MAG asking for the
    roll-out to be paused, but the council refused, and is delaying dealing
    with the issues raised.

    A GL MAG spokesman said:

    “This is a clear attempt by the council to bypass democratic scrutiny.
    They have seen what happened in Hackney and wanted to avoid the uproar.
    This is a sign that our campaigning is working, but we need to be on the
    lookout for other councils doing the same. Cock-up or conspiracy?
    Either way it’s a totally unacceptable way for a democratic organisation
    to behave, and it goes against all democratic norms. No other council
    has taken such an underhand approach”

    Local MAG reps are working hard to try and engage with the council to
    get them to listen. A meeting with the Council is now scheduled for
    27th March.

    MAG hammers home ICE Ban opposition with Minister

    Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) Chair, Neil Liversidge, met Minister of
    State (Decarbonisation and Technology) Jesse Norman yesterday. With
    resistance to the ICE ban growing in Europe, MAG hammered home the
    message that the Government should abandon its plan to ban the sale of
    new ICE vehicles in the UK from 2030. Instead, MAG is presenting a
    radical alternative that will massively improve transport connectivity
    to unify the UK, improve air quality, and reduce emissions, whilst at
    the same time strengthening our country economically.

    MAG National Chairman Neil Liversidge and MAG’s Director of Campaigns &
    Political Engagement, Colin Brown, met Jesse Norman at the Transport
    Department HQ yesterday. Neil and Colin hammered home the scale of the
    mistake the UK Government will be making if it mandates the end of
    internal combustion engined vehicles (ICEVs) as planned from 2030.

    Key points they highlighted included –

    • Why MAG’s alternative plan makes more sense.
    • The threat the Government’s forced electrification poses to the UK’s
    long-term economic prosperity and national security.
    • How forced electrification will negatively impact most people’s
    standard of living.
    • Why policies that work in London don’t necessarily work in the rest of
    the UK.

    The meeting took place as news surfaced that the EU’s own anti-ICE plan
    is in trouble, with proposals tabled to create an exception for
    e-fuelled cars from 2035. Germany, Austria, Italy and other EU nations
    are opposing forced electrification due to the lack of technology
    neutrality. MAG has consistently argued that internal combustion
    engines will be necessary and desirable for the foreseeable future. Net
    Zero can be achieved whilst this technology continues to supply the
    clear benefits of carbon neutral, energy dense liquid fuels. There is
    no logic in enforcing the demise of a technology in a way that will
    inevitably cause hardship for UK citizens, whilst seriously damaging the
    UK’s economic prospects, and therefore its security, certainly for
    decades and possibly forever.

    Speaking after the meeting, Neil said:

    “We were not expecting the Minister to announce a U-turn on the policy
    in the meeting, but I can say that we have robustly presented the
    strength of feeling on the ICE ban. We briefly discussed MAG’s
    alternative solution for the future of transport with rapid expansion of
    an electrified public transport system allied to a diverse range of
    technologies in the private motorised sector. There are no reasons why
    electric and ICE vehicles cannot co-exist to create a diverse and
    resilient transport system. We are seeing Europe edging towards this
    reality, and the UK could lead the way. We have agreed to submit a
    fleshed-out proposal to Jesse Norman that will both meet the
    Government’s ambitions and avoid destroying the economy and motorcycling
    culture in the process.”

    I enjoyed this conversation with Lembit Opik and Ian Churchlow of the Motorcycle Action Group, which starts after about 6-7 minutes of filling the workshop with 2 stroke smoke.



    And Petrolrevolt.com is worth a look too; "PetrolRevolt is the place for Petrolheads to share and celebrate a passion for all Petrol powered metal."

    Well done Bikerman putting MAG in front of the forum members. MAG's magazine 'Open Road' is a surprisingly good read too. I think MAG membership should be compulsory for every rider now, the future of our rights and freedoms to ride bikes is seriously under threat now.

    News from the Motorcycle Action Group (MAG)

    New Pothole Campaign: Resurface Our Roads, We Deserve Better

    The Motorcycle Action Group renews its campaigning to end the blight of
    crumbling road surfaces. The Resurface Our Roads campaign is supporting
    a Government petition calling for increased funding. MAG will also
    highlight the dangers faced by motorcyclists and shortcomings of local
    authority responses.

    MAG is throwing its weight behind promoting a new Government petition to
    motorcyclists. The petition, raised by Dean Murphy, calls for increased
    funding for road repair and resurfacing.

    The petition states:

    The Government takes billions a year from road users. We deserve better
    investment in road maintenance, not simply waiting for potholes to
    appear then filling them.

    Many roads need resurfacing to provide better, safer conditions for all
    road users. The Government should increase funding for this.

    Road surfaces in many areas are a disgrace and not becoming of a
    supposedly developed leading world economy.

    Potholes are an obvious danger to all road users but our roads need much
    more than the sticking plaster of pothole repair, much of which takes an
    age to be undertaken.

    Nor is it simply about safety; there is a total lack of civic pride.
    Improving roads could help improve wellbeing by reducing stress. Invest
    more of the billions of pounds of revenue taken from road users into
    road infrastructure.

    For motorcyclists, the risks go far beyond the cost and inconvenience of
    damaged wheels and suspension.

    MAG research conducted in 2020 showed that every year, over 70
    motorcyclists are killed or seriously injured in incidents where road
    surface defects are a contributory factor. Safe road infrastructure is
    one of the key pillars of the Safe System approach to road safety.

    MAG’s Director of Campaigns & Political Engagement, Colin Brown, said:

    “Potholes are an emotive subject for riders. A simple request for
    stories of pothole related crashes on MAG’s social media attracted a
    response rate higher by an order of magnitude than other posts.
    Potholes have always been in the top five issues that get raised by our
    membership.

    The recent announcement by Jeremy Hunt of an extra £200 million to
    tackle the issue is risible when taken in the context of the £14 billion
    backlog of repairs reported by the Asphalt Industry Alliance in their
    2023 ALARM report.”

    MAG is calling on all members to raise the issue both locally in this
    Thursday’s local elections and nationally with their MPs. Ask your
    local candidates and MP to sign the petition and make sure that they do
    all they can to allocate funds in this area. Bikers are voters and now
    is the time to make our voice heard.

    The petition can be found at https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/634995

    Workplace parking under scrutiny for Ride To Work Day 2023

    For Ride To Work Day 2023, the Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) is
    investigating workplace parking facilities. A survey launched today
    asks riders for details covering the availability, quality and security
    of workplace motorcycle parking.

    Ride To Work Day 2023, which will take place on Monday 19th June,
    celebrates the many benefits gained from riding a motorcycle, scooter or
    moped to work. The international campaign increases awareness and
    acceptance of an often-overlooked transport choice.

    In order to increase the popularity of this congestion-busting commuter
    option, MAG is asking employers to bring their motorcycle parking
    provision up to scratch. Firstly, MAG will answer the question: how
    well are employers doing? MAG is then asking all riders to give a copy
    of a new motorcycle parking guide to their company.

    New this year, the Ride To Work Day resource pack includes an employers’
    guide to motorcycle parking. This simple booklet gives employers tips
    and advice to help them facilitate this sustainable commuting option.

    MAG’s Director of Campaigns & Political Engagement, Colin Brown, said:

    “One thing cannot be denied; if you ride to work you are going to need
    somewhere to park your bike. Motorcycle parking is often just an
    afterthought, if not entirely ignored. Car, and increasingly cycle,
    parking is a given at most workplaces. But the motorcyclist is often
    left to make the best of a bad job. We are running this survey to get a
    feel for how well the motorcycle commute is being supported by
    employers. We have also developed a simple guide with advice for
    employers and hope to see the standards improve by Ride To Work Day 2024.”

    Put the Action in:

    If your workplace has its own parking facilities, please complete the
    short survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/LSPT8HQ
    You don't necessarily need to be a regular motorcycle commuter to answer
    the questions. Once you have completed the survey, why not give your

    MAG's motorcycle theft campaigning has an ACE up its sleeve

    The Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) has revealed an ACE Café up it’s anti
    motorcycle theft campaigning sleeve. The iconic ACE Café will be the
    venue for the Hertfordshire Fight Motorcycle Theft public meeting.

    MAG has already delivered two successful public meetings aimed at
    raising the profile of the fight against motorcycle theft. Gillingham
    in Kent and Birmingham have seen meetings earlier this year with riders
    given the chance to hold the Kent and West Midlands police forces to
    account. Hertfordshire Police’s response will be in the spotlight as
    the ACE Café hosts the next in the series of public meetings being
    arranged by MAG.

    The Hertfordshire Police and Crime Commissioner, David Lloyd, will be
    joined by Chief Inspector Ricky Bartlett and MAG’s own Colin Brown on
    the panel for the hustings-style meeting.

    The previous meetings in Kent and the West Midlands have seen tangible
    outcomes, and the hope is that this next meeting will be equally effective.

    The meeting will be open to any riders who wish to find out more about
    the work Hertfordshire Police are doing, ask questions and raise
    concerns. The meeting will take place at the ACE Café on Wednesday 14th
    June, kicking off at 6pm.

    Speaking as the meeting was announced, MAG’s Director of Campaigns &
    Political Engagement, Colin Brown, said:

    “We are delighted to be holding this next meeting in the series at such
    a great venue. Our thanks go to Mark Wilsmore for allowing us to hold
    the meeting at the ACE Café. We already have a date set for a West
    Yorkshire Police meeting – it will be held in Leeds on 24th June. We
    have seen genuine engagement in both Kent and the West Midlands
    following meetings in those areas. The meetings are unquestionably
    raising the profile of the issue. More importantly the meetings are
    opening up opportunities for greater co-operation between the riding
    public and our police forces, and other stakeholders. We are confident
    that the meeting on 14th June will have the same impact in Hertfordshire.”
