Do you belong to a club that represents specifically motorcyclists?

**rustic101** · 9th March 2011, 21:01

Trying to get an understanding of how many riders belong to a club. This is loosely related to the MSAC and MSL. I’m also interested in establishing this for the wider community outside KB.

So am running a poll to get a light feel.

You seem to have trouble differentiating between a 'club' and an 'organisation'.

**bogan** · 12th March 2011, 15:25

Just voted (no points for guessing who for

), but would it not be easier to ask those organisations what their membership numbers are (assuming there is some legislation that means such info should be available?). Or are you more after what organisations kb'rs belong to?

As for those who knock the collection of info, what the fuck does it matter? actually getting info instead of just making assumptions makes him more onto it than most I reckon

Voted BRONZ

On the bright side his poll is Juuust marginally better worded than last elections smacking referendum.

Do tell rustic. What interests would the police have in this information? Come clean mate.

where is the hells angels option?

**Big Dave** · 13th March 2011, 13:51

'BRONZ is a Non-Profit Incorporated Society with branches throughout New Zealand.'

**James Deuce** · 13th March 2011, 13:53

Didn't you guys know?

Bike Club = Organised Crime.

It would be nice if there were some clubs listed in the poll options.

**rustic101** · 13th March 2011, 14:09

Call it a group, club, organisation, Non-Profit Incorporated Society, hell call it what ever you want.

What I'm trying to find out is how many road motorcyclists (not their bikes) are represented by the likes of BRONZ, MAG etc. Not interested in the Organised Crime type figures.

The rational for my poll is around the MSAC and MSL.

The poll is rather pointless.

For a start, BRONZ and MAG-NZ are not clubs, and most clubs that do exist are not listed.

What proportion of NZ motorcyclists do you think will vote? Enough to draw any meaningful conclusions? Or do you you propose to generate your own conclusions from a flawed poll, based on the undetermined votes of a small number of keyboard warriors?

Perhaps it is? It will not capture anyone that is not a member of KB. So far looking at members of KB that have voted it already indicates that they do not belong to any..
