Sorry Kev, but I'm with Graham on this.
We have so many issues that have been looked over for years and years, wire rope barriers, tolls, slippery road markings, parking, rego, insurance, the list is endless. And it is the exact same issues that have been a problem for motorcyclists for the past 15 years.
Yes the MCC is supposed to be our mouth piece, but they have done bugger all in addressing any of these issues apart from a nasty letter campain.
Tell me what REAL success have they had in our favour in the last 10 years? My CTP still goes up each year, same with my rego, I still pay tolls, slip on pedestrian crossing, get booked for parking on the footpath, and I am pretty sure there was another fatality on the M4 last month where a rider was carved up by the wire barrier. You only have to read a motorcycle forum, or open a 2wheels/AMCN and read the letters pages to see what is really pissing off riders.
I have had these same arguements with MCC delegates for years and yet, the issues are still never addressed.
On the point of funding, does the pedestrian council receive government funds? How about the pushbike riders? I bet even the car and truck representative bodies get government funding, for f*** sake, i can get government funding to give up smoking. So with the MCC being our representative body, how come they don't recieve goverment funding?
