Motorcyclists are being urged to make their vote count this general election and take part in Question Time-style events across the country.
Bike insurance policyholders might want to attend a session with their local candidates organised by motorcycle community general election campaign Riders Are Voters.
The group is made up of industry bodies the Motor Cycle Industry Association (MCI), the Motorcycle Action Group and the British Motorcyclists Federation and is arranging the events in dealer showrooms.
Another session will also be held at the Manchester Bike Show.
Steve Kenward, MCI's chief executive officer, commented: "These local events offer a chance to ask the decision makers the important questions that matter to the biking community and industry."
The events are scheduled to take place during April in Bristol, Slough, Kings Lynn and Salisbury, with the first session already having taken place in Cumbria and the second to be held in Manchester on April 3rd.
Prime minister Gordon Brown recently expressed his opinion that the motorcycle industry in the UK is of great value.
During Prime Minister's Questions he told Conservative MP for St Albans Anne Main: "It is important that we have a strong motorcycling industry in this country."
