Say what you like about the French - but they certainly know how to make a point!

That also applies to their bikers.

Apparently unhappy that Government isn't really listening to them and trying to introduce unwelcome initiatives and 'stealth' taxes - they took to the street to complain.

On the 24th March 90,000+ bikers brought roads and cities to a halt right across the country!  :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21:

Take a look at these pics

Good luck my French friends.  Hope it did bring this to the attention of the right people.  It seems every time someone has an idea, it has to become a regulation or a law.  Rather than just common sense guidelines.

Time will tell  :-\ - but it seems they lost sight of the fact that bikers are also voters!
