“Wow buying the Rec Licence saved so me so much per year!”
Motorcycling Australia (MA) is the governing body of motorcycle sport in Australia.
In any sport, it is essential to have rules regulating its conduct. This is particularly important in the case of motorcycling, where participants and spectators alike need to be risk aware.
This book of rules, referred to as the Manual of Motorcycle Sport or the General Competition Rules; forms the basis of a contract between the regulating bodies of the sport and those who participate in it, namely licence holders, members, promoters and clubs. Our rules must be fair, they must confer on officials a clearly defined discretion to ensure that they are applied fairly, and must be observed by all. As the technology of our sport is constantly changing and developing so must our rules adapt to change.
MA’s core business
MA’s core business is to develop and apply the rules and regulations of the sport and represent you, our 25,000 members Australia-wide.
MA operates within the framework of local, State and Commonwealth Government legislation and regulations and is affiliated with the international governing body, Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM), based in Geneva, Switzerland. MA is a Federation with seven voting members, comprising State Controlling Bodies (SCBs) from all States and Territories except the ACT. MA’s National Council is made up of one delegate from each SCB, usually the SCB President. The Council elects 4 Directors to the MA Board, which in turn appoints 2 independent Directors.
MA has a full-time National Office in Melbourne, and most of the SCBs around Australia will also have a full-time office in their capital city. All are available to help keen riders enjoy their sport to the full.
