2008 is a key year for FEMA: it will celebrate a double anniversary!

20 years ago, the Federation of European Motorcyclists (FEM) – the first organisation representing road riders in Europe - was created. 10 years ago, the Federation of European Motorcyclists (FEM) and the European Motorcyclists’ Association (EMA) fused to become FEMA.

FEMA celebrates 20 years of active representation in Brussels, promoting and defending motorcycling in Europe: A look at the past to better face new challenges.

Happy Birthday FEMA!

FEMA members are glad to celebrate these major events with you and we will keep you updated with new information all year long!
