The British Motorcyclists Federation (BMF) has today joined the National Young Riders Forum (NYRF); a move that will bring together the knowledge and expertise of both organisations, alongside other expert representatives from the motorcycle and road safety arenas, to improve the safety of young motorcyclists, who remain amongst the most vulnerable of UK road users.

NYRF brings together members with a wealth of expertise from all corners of the road casualty reduction sector, including leading motorcyclist organisations and representatives from Local Authority Road Safety Teams, Safer Roads Partnerships, UK Police forces, Fire and Rescue and the DVSA.

Anna Zee, Political and Technical Services Director of the British Motorcyclists Federation said: “ The BMF is delighted to be joining the NYRF to work with fellow motorcyclist organisations, and key road safety partners, to reduce young rider collisions and casualties, which remain unacceptably high.”

Heidi Duffy MBE, Facilitator of the National Young Rider Forum, said: “ NYRF is really pleased to welcome the BMF to the world of young motorcyclists and all the important aspects of becoming a new rider. The BMF represents the best interests of UK Motorcyclists and to know that now includes our youngest, most inexperienced riders, is great and we look forward to focussing together on supporting them going forward.”
