Earlier today, (July 7th 2026) Anna Zee, BMF Political and Technical Services Director and Paul Morgan CBE, BMF’s Government Relations Director, attended a high-level reception and launch event organised by Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) and the Auto Cycle Union (ACU). The event was hosted by John Slinger MP at the House of Commons to mark the return to the UK in September 2027 of the FIM International Six Days Enduro of Nations (ISDE). The ISDE is being held in the UK for the first time in over 40 years and marks the 101st edition of one of the most historic and prestigious competitions in global motorsport. Around 500 riders from over 30 countries will compete across Men's, Women's, and Junior national

The BMF is working with key partners within the Motorcycle Focus Group to make your Ride safer Every summer, thousands of motorcyclists head to Scotland to experience some of the finest riding roads anywhere in Europe. From the sweeping bends of the Borders to the spectacular scenery of the Highlands and the islands, Scotland offers unforgettable and often breathtaking motorcycling. But those roads also present unique challenges for motorcyclists, who unfortunately account for roughly 18% of Scottish road fatalities while making up less than 1% of all traffic. Rural routes, especially in regions popular for touring like the Highlands, feature heavily in accident statistics, with almost 50% of serious accidents happening on roads with speed limits over 40 mph. Many of our

Four days. Blazing sunshine. Thousands of motorcycles. Hundreds of exhibitors. Countless conversations. One memorable debut for the British Motorcyclists Federation. The British Motorcyclists Federation made its debut as an exhibitor at ABR Festival 2026, spending four days meeting riders, supporting affiliated clubs, championing motorcycling and showcasing the work the Federation carries out on behalf of motorcyclists across the UK. While ABR Festival has become a firm favourite in the motorcycling calendar, 2026 marked an exciting milestone for the BMF as we made our first appearance as an exhibitor at the event. From arriving on Wednesday to begin setting up through to the close of the festival on Sunday afternoon, the BMF team embraced every opportunity to meet riders, reconnect with members, strengthen relationships

Ducati Dragons Continue to Grow as Official Ducati Club and BMF Affiliated Group The motorcycle community has always been built around friendship, passion and bringing like-minded riders together, and one group proving exactly that is the ever-growing Ducati Dragons. Now firmly established as both a British Motorcyclists Federation affiliated club and now a Ducati Official Club (DOC), the ever-growing women’s riding community continues to make a major impact within the biking world while preparing to celebrate Ducati’s upcoming centenary year in 2026. Founded in 2021 by Gillian Riddell with co-organiser Andrea Marshall and now supported by Ducati Stoke, the Ducati Dragons were created to provide a welcoming and supportive safe space where female Ducati riders could share experiences, build confidence and enjoy motorcycling

Keep it Legal: Ride Right Campaign Launches Today (22 June 2026) to Protect the Future of Legal on and off-road Motorcycling In recent years, a visible minority of irresponsible and anti-social riders have unfortunately been putting the future of active outdoor motorcycling under threat by riding illegally — on footpaths, bridleways, private and common land, and other places where no motor vehicle rights exist. This has involved both motorcycles and illegal high powered eBikes, with their riders tyrannising local communities and damaging the reputation and freedoms of the responsible majority of motorcyclists. The Ride Right campaign, spearheaded by the Trail Riders Federation (TRF) and the Auto-Cycle Union (ACU), and supported by key motorcycling bodies such as the National Motorcyclists Council (NMC) and

We all know the importance of carrying out pre-ride checks on our motorcycles, but when was the last time you carried out a check on yourself? This Men's Health Week, June 15 - 21, we're encouraging riders to take a few moments to think about their own health and wellbeing. Whether it's booking that health check, talking to someone, getting more active, or simply taking time to recharge, small steps can make a big difference. Motorcycling can offer many benefits for our wellbeing – from reducing stress and improving mental health to connecting us with like-minded people through a shared passion. But looking after ourselves is just as important as looking after our bikes. After all, we wouldn't ignore a warning light on

The British Motorcyclists Federation (BMF) attended the 2026 TyreSafe Annual Briefing and Awards, held on 10 June at the Belfry Hotel & Resort in North Warwickshire. This year’s event marked the 20th anniversary of TyreSafe, celebrating two decades of work as one of the UK’s leading road safety organisations.

At the heart of TyreSafe’s work is a simple but vital message: regular tyre checks save lives. Through its well-known ACT campaign, motorists and riders are encouraged to routinely check their tyres for Air Pressure, Condition and Tread. For motorcyclists,

“Ride To Work Day” provides an opportunity for individuals to switch from cars or public transport to two-wheels for their daily commute and experience reduced congestion, improved mental health well-being and reduced carbon emissions. “Ride To Work Day” is an international campaign, with similar events happening in other countries across the globe. Its aim is to promote the use of motorcycles, mopeds, and scooters as an important mode of transport, not only for commuting, but as a an affordable and accessible transport option for all ages. Paul Morgan CBE, the BMF’s Government Relations Executive says: “To fully unlock the benefits of motorcycling for improved mobility, better mental health wellbeing and for the environment, motorcycling needs to be fully integrated into the mainstream of
