Did you notice the police officer on the motorcycle was wearing Hi-Viz flouro yellow “safety” gear?

You might of but the guy who tried making a pancake out of him while updating his status on facebook didn’t. 

Why am I posting this?

Well, In Australia at moment there are recommendations in front of the Victorian State parliment that if passed, could mean motorcyclists are forced to wear Hi-Viz flouro yellow gear from head to toe.

THIS IS WHAT YOU COULD BE WEARING NEXT TIME YOU GO FOR A RIDE….WITH MATCHING HELMET AND GLOVES AND WHATEVER ELSE BIG BROTHER LEGISLATES!!

WE NEED TO STAND UNITED AGAINST THESE UNFAIR LAWS……YES THAT MEANS YOU ON THE SCOOTER & YOU THE PATCH BIKER.

Step 1: Go and fill in the state government survey and pay special attention to the motorcycle related questions, they are trying to bring back front number plates and force us into hi vis clothing.

Step 2: Join the Facebook group “NO TO UNFAIR DISCRIMINATION AGAINST MOTOR CYCLISTS” that has been started to keep riders up to date with protest rides etc.

If you are an Australian Tumblr, please reblog. Other Aussies please share this message as much as you can.

Do NOT let cagers decide how we ride !

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” - C.S Lewis
