    December 26 Will be my 72 birthday, currently riding a BMW 1000RR, came here with my family when i was 10 years old, lived and worked in Brisbane for a while.I am a member of the ulysses motor Cycle Club current membership 70,000 plus average, age for joining was 65 years when i joined, the mind boggles at the mind set of the current Queensland GOV. that thinks we capable of being a menace to to the general public in any way. The fact we worked all our lives then retired. we planed to ride our Motor cycles and enjoy the remaining years looking at the country that i think is the best in the world, pity that some of our politicians are determined to make that difficult by there cultrual perecution legislation,so much so that for me New Zealand is looking as a place to spend my retirement and money in sad very sad.

    Great show guys, glad you opened up some insite into the Queensland campbell newman one minded laws. As a law abiding citizen and a motorcyclist i dont like being branded as an outlaw and being stopped and harrased by police that want give you grief for the smallest thing..eg a shortened plastic mud guard on a twenty year old bike. Yes there is a number that need cleaning up for a safer community, but seriously, five or six mates going for a ride and your a gang,,,,,, really. Our freedom is being taken away. Remember…. Live to ride,ride to live. Cheers guys.

Temporary Australians

The Temporary Australians television series looks behind the negative public image to the people themselves, doing the stuff they love and explaining it all on camera.

Temporary Australians goes where many have never been: the motorcycle shows, rides, races and rallies. It talks to riders and finds out what makes them tick and shows the fun they have, how they involve their families and how they contribute positively to the wider Australian society.
