MATES is a community group with one purpose in mind - to raise the awareness of the joys of responsible motorcycling.

Through the work of the members we aim to educate riders on the many issues surrounding safe and enjoyable motorcycling; and to offer an insight to other road users of the sheer exhilaration we experience through riding and the unique dangers we face.

Amongst the members are people from all walks of life from within the world of motorcycling, affiliated industries and authorities, and community members who simply have an involvement in motorcycling. We have people in the trade, educators and trainers, and some members who are just passionate riders. We have cruiser and Harley owners, sports bike riders, even some members with dirt bikes and scooters!

You will find that one theme is constant  - MAKING A DIFFERENCE. Each and every one of us cares about motorcyclists and want to do as much as we can to keep them alive.

Welcome to MATES. Have a run around, and come with us on the journey.
