Arh I see, so those of us that actually do something rather than just talk able it are the cynics, Hmmm interesting take on the subject, ever thought of politics.

Cynical of how much benefit these things are, now that I am, especially if they claim legitemisy for organisation that aren't supporting them , I don't support you view but instead rely on my own 30 years involvement with motorcycling, I tend to concentrate on the practical and tangible, not something in some report that has no teeth to implement anything anyway, my points aren't just valid, but historically correct.

If or course you're trying to tell me this is aimed at teaching other highway design engineers about motorbikes to bring them into line with the goverments stratergy, then why don't they know already? I would have thought it part of their job to be fully aware of the needs of all road users or you're not doing your job right.
