Queensland Riders Need a Voice
When the Motorcycle Riders Association of Queensland (MRAQ) was wound up in 2020 a huge gap in representation at government, industry and community levels was left.
The Queensland Motorcycle Council has been formed to be the representative body for all motorcyclists and other powered two-wheel vehicle riders in Queensland.
The Queensland Motorcycle Council is your voice
The Queensland Motorcycle Council has been formed by passionate riders – just like you – and highly experienced industry figures to speak for you.
The aims of the Queensland Motorcycle Council are:
• to establish relationships with, and lobby to, all levels of government and industry on your behalf;
• to influence policies and regulations that affect the safety of riders;
• to work with other road user groups to promote the overall safety of all road users;
• to work with other road user groups to promote the benefits of motorcycles in our community;
• to educate government, motorcycle riders and other road users in the unique challenges riders face on our roads.
