John Burrill
I have been riding motorcycles for about 50 years now and have every intention of continuing to do so for a lot of years yet.
I was a full time motorcycle courier in London in the 1970’s and moved to Australia with my family in 1991. I was a rider trainer for a while and then became a driving examiner with the Dept of Transport and Main Roads (TMR). For five years I was a volunteer instructor on the old Motorcycle Training Program that predated QRide. I was with TMR for 25 years. For most of that time I became the subject matter expert in the Queensland and National road rules.
I currently work part time after a few years of temporary retirement. I help to run a successful Facebook group called ‘Helping New Motorcyclists’. We are a safe place where people new to motorcycling can get advice and supervision.
I am honoured to be a part of the interim committee for the Queensland Motorcycle Council.
I look forward to being part of a strong voice to engage governments and other bodies to promote the safe use of motorcycles in our community.
