Thank you for dropping by. You could be surfing or you could have an interest in riding safety. Irregardless, we are appealing to you to be part of a founding group of members in a soon-to-be "Singapore Bikes Association" (SBA), if you have a passion for riding safety and would like to spread the safety message to bikers.

Following a meeting with TP Safety Branch at Ubi HQ 26-01-07morning, we are tentatively setting a date somewhere after Chinese New Year for this core group to meet up. There is currently no umbrella organisation co-ordinating all the biker groups in Singapore.

SBA seeks to unite these biker groups and individuals who share a common passion for riding and an interest in riding safety. It will be a bikers' group for bikers, working together with TP in promoting riding safety in Singapore, not for TP.

The permanent agenda for SBA will be to promote riding safety. We intend to promote safety through :
1. Meeting up schools, polys, army camps, new riders who just passed etc to spread the safety message.
2. Gathering feedback from bikers. (Think of what CASE does for consumers and AWARE does for women)
3. Other avenues to be decided in future meetings.

If you are an individual or represent a group of riders, touring group, riding club etc, and have been always wanting to advocate safer riding, this is the platform you seek that we are building.

Please e-mail either Zhehong (czh2002sg@yahoo.com.sg) or Spectrum (spectrum1919@hotmail.com) or pm Endlessloop with SBA as the mail title.

Please watch this thread for the date we are meeting up with the TP again to plot the association's direction for the year ahead and to elect leadership as well as settle administrative matters for starting up.

Interesting.... Car drivers beware... hehehe...

I mean, finally a voice for bikers.
Coz the last Bike Association was actually an association of bike shops.
sigh...
Where most else if not all mainly drives a car, else lives in a Condo @ least... Where bike problems are almost non existent to them.

Eben though this is for the promotion of riding safety, it's a start. (Coz the TP is also sorta like involved mah...

Maybe I should sigh up?

:D
