Eamonn Coghlan (Independent)

Last weekend, however, I was baffled by the number of motorcyclists from all around the country who drove to Dáil Éireann in protest against the introduction of compulsory testing of their motorcycles, similar to the test for cars that was introduced a few years ago. I was baffled by their protest about the compulsory use of visibility jackets while riding their motorcycles. I am an avid motorcycle enthusiast. I love to ride my motorcycle around the country, even on Seanad business.
