BIKE STORY IN THE AGE - MAY 30, 2014?

To all interested parties.

Not  sure  if  it will get a run but the Melbourne Age newspaper put a
lot  of  effort into a story on motorcycle & scooter safety today, May
29.

Today  was  also  the Motorcycle Advisory Group meeting at VicRoads HQ
in  Kew.  I  hear  there was some controversy over VicRoads control of
the  meetings  and  minutes  and  the "advice" VicRoads gives to Roads
Minister Mulder on motorcycles & scooters.

Both  things  seem  to  have  been generated, in part at least, by the
media impact of last Monday's IRG protest at VicRoads HQ.

The  anger  that  none of the 64 recommendations from the inquiry into
motorcycle & scooter safety have effectively been started in two years
is begining to show.

2014 is an election year.

Leader newspapers may carry stories next week.
