Just wondering how many people on here are members of an MRO? Be it the AMA or other? National or State? I thought it may be a good idea for a post like this in order to inform anyone that may be interested in joining an organization that lobbies for the rights of motorcyclists.

Personally I'm a member of the Modified Motorcycle Association (MMA) http://www.mma-az.org/membership.html , which is a state specific organization.

I'm also a former member of the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) http://www.amadirectlink.com/ , which is a national organization.

I belong to ABATE of Ohio.
I need to renew my PA membership.
I have been to many PA ABATE functions.
Mostly around Gettysburg.

Over here in Britain, we have two main MRO's -

MAG

and

BMF

I am a member of MAG, purely cos it seems aimed more at riders of the type of bike I like, although they are trying to get a wider membership base. For £20, there is no reason why any rider in this country shouldn't join.

On a slightly different note, I am also a member of NABD - just hope that I never need their assistance!!

Hey Nobby I posted a link to the Bike Channel I found on the BMF page. Pretty cool stuff there. I put it in the lounge and of course gave you credit for it. Hope you dont mind.

Well to bad if you do ...you cant punch me from there
