Join us to keep EU Hands Off Biking, it's time for Action now!.
On the 25th September you can make your voice heard. Starting from service areas across the country, we all ride at 1pm, 45mph, using the inside lanes and disperse 20 minutes later. Negotiations are ongoing and as citizens we must be considered. This is the first time. Let's show what we could be capable of.
The list of start points is changing all the time, but as of today we can confirm the following, or see it here, visually http://tinyurl.com/Action-Now-EU-Hands-Off-Biking
