Riders, it’s almost here—International Ride To Work Day 2025 lands on Tuesday, 10 June, and it’s time to make some noise. At the Motorcycle Action Group (MAG), we’ve been building up to this moment, showing how mopeds, scooters, and motorcycles fit into the UK’s transport future. The Government’s Integrated National Transport Strategy has our ideas—submitted before the February cut-off—and now we’re waiting to see if they’ll deliver. But waiting’s not our style. On 10 June, we’re riding to prove what we’ve been saying all along: two wheels aren’t just a commute—they’re a statement. This is your day, your voice, your ride—let’s make it count.
Over the past weeks, we’ve laid it out. Motorcycling slashes congestion, freeing up roads from city jams to country lanes. It’s greener than most think, with tech like cleaner fuels and smarter engines ready to push it further—if the Government keeps it rider-friendly. Local communities could turbocharge this, crafting policies that fit their streets, though we’ve warned about daft inconsistencies like barring bikes from bus lanes. The strategy’s got MAG’s blueprint: a people-first transport network where two wheels thrive. Now, 10 June is our chance to take those words off the page and onto the tarmac, showing the UK what integration really looks like.
Picture it: thousands of riders rolling out—mopeds buzzing through towns, scooters dodging rush-hour snarls, motorcycles carving their path to work. It’s not just a ride; it’s a showcase. Every twist of the throttle proves how bikes ease traffic, cut emissions, and give people real choice. Tech could amplify that—route apps, seamless hub parking—while local councils could seal the deal with rider-smart rules. MAG’s been fighting for this vision forever, and other rider advocates back it: motorcycling’s a solution, not a sideline. On 10 June, we’ll flood the roads with living proof, daring policymakers to ignore us.
This isn’t theory—it’s action. The strategy talks “seamless, door-to-door journeys”—well, watch a scooter rider zip to a station and hop a train, or a motorcyclist beat the gridlock to clock in on time. It’s about freedom, too—the kind that comes from dodging packed buses or endless car queues. MAG’s response to the strategy hammered this home: two wheels aren’t a niche; they’re mainstream, practical, and here to stay. On Ride To Work Day, you’re the megaphone. Every mile you ride screams what we’ve told them: motorcycling belongs in this future.
And it’s personal. Your ride’s your story—why you choose a moped over a minivan, a motorcycle over a motorway crawl. Maybe it’s the cash you save on fuel, the time you claw back from traffic, or the sheer buzz of the road. That’s the “people-first” bit the strategy’s chasing, and you’re living it. MAG’s been at this for decades, pushing for a transport system that sees riders as assets, not afterthoughts. On 10 June, we’re not just proving a point—we’re proving you. Your commute, your community, your voice, all roaring together.
We’re hopeful—cautiously hopeful—the strategy will reflect what we’ve said. MAG laid out the stakes: fair rules, tech that works for us, local power that doesn’t leave us high and dry. Other voices in the rider community chimed in, and now it’s down to the Government. But hope’s not enough—action is. Ride To Work Day 2025 is our mic drop, a day to show every council, every planner, every suit in Westminster what two wheels bring to the table. It’s not about waiting for permission—it’s about showing them what’s already real.
Here’s the plan: ride on 10 June, loud and proud. Your usual route? Perfect. A group ride through town? Even better. Park at a hub, test that app, dodge that jam—whatever your ride, make it visible. Snap a photo, film a clip, share it with #RideToWork2025. Tell them why you ride—how it beats the alternatives, how it fits your life. The strategy’s brewing, and we want it steeped in two-wheeled truth. MAG’s leading this charge, and we’re counting on you to crank the volume. Flood social media, fill the roads, let’s make it impossible to miss.
This is your day—own it. International Ride To Work Day 2025 isn’t just a date; it’s a movement. MAG’s been the heartbeat of this fight, with riders across the UK pumping the same blood. The Integrated National Transport Strategy has our case—congestion-busting, planet-friendly, people-powered motorcycling. On 10 June, we’re not asking for a seat at the table—we’re taking it. Every moped, scooter, and motorcycle on the road is your voice, shouting what we’ve known forever: two wheels move the nation. Ride out, riders. Let’s make it epic—loud, proud, and all ours.
