Here are the details of the protest that will be held on the coming Saturday and Sunday at the Quebec Parliament Building. Certain details beyond our control could change at the last minute.

We are looking forward to seeing you there for a protest that will go down in history under the aegis of the common front of motorcyclists and will forever mark the file on motorcycling in Quebec.

One thing is certain, we will get their attention. Even the trade press from France (Moto Magazine) will be on hand to cover the event.
