Before becoming the Federation of European Motorcyclists' Associations (FEMA), the Federation of European Motorcyclists (FEM) decided in 1996 to organise its first MEP Motorcycle Ride.
The concept of the event was to bring together motorcycling citizens from all over Europe and their elected representatives for an informal and enjoyable event, giving MEPs the opportunity to experience the pleasure of motorcycling, while at the same time better understand motorcycle related issues.
This first edition was a great success and the MEP Motorcycle Ride has since been organised every year, usually during one of the EP Plenary Sessions. The 2004 and 2006 editions took place in Brussels.
It has now become a traditional event, well known at the European Parliament.
The MEP Ride attracts over 150 participants, including MEPs, their Assistants, FEMA members, and other stakeholders.
