Why are there not more motor bicycling clubs? As this hobby grows in popularity it seems that each state or local areas would do well have organized clubs. The reason being is that right now it seems everybody is kinda on there own out there to fight for there rights to ride. When many people come together to use many voices as one regarding laws and legislation, your are more apt to have things go your way. Clubs can be more effecient petioning law makers to make sensible law and clubs can also make much more noise if a fellow rider has been wrongly prosecuted under state or local law. Some clubs might even have the financial resources to employ there own lawyer or lobbyist. Just seems to me that this hobby needs to find a way to organize in the interest of protecting this hobby and making it better for the future by using a collective voice to promote good change in law and regulations.
Just get tired of reading post where someone is getting harrassed or threatened even if they are within the laws. Stuff like that just drives people away. If those people were apart of a large club or organization with a collective voice out to protect there rights to ride...I think that we would have less of our fellow riders getting harrassed. So I encourage you to think about starting a club in your state or local area. Know the laws and stand up when you are being bullied by a bored cop with too much time on his or her hands and thank those good cops who take the time to know the law a treat you respectfully!
