P a g e 2 | 13 NATIONAL SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP (NSC) Dear racers and interested participants, In 2017 The Superbike Association (TSA) approached the Kenya Motor Sports Foundation (KMS Foundation) requesting for the formation of a closed circuit superbike racing championship recognized by, and run under the regulations of the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM). The KMS Foundation were enthusiastic over the request to grow motorcycle sports in the country and consented for the four-race TSA 2018 East Africa Superbike Championship (EASBC) (formerly known as the Superbike Championship (SBC)) to be run under observance as a candidate event. KMS Foundation was impressed by the organizational capabilities of TSA during the 2018 candidate season and proceeded to form the four-round, eight-race National Superbike Circuit Racing Championship (NSCRC) for 2019. KMS Foundation developed a set of rules known as the National Competition Rules (NCRs) which all competitors must adhere to. It must be emphasized that the national championship belongs to MSFK. KMS Foundation does not organize any of the four rounds but has instead delegated hosting to race promoters. Hosting rights for the NSCRC are currently shared by two clubs; TSA and Road Warriors (RW) on two homologated racetracks; The Great Rift Valley (TGRV) in Mai Mahiu and Whistling Morans (WM) in Athi River. TSA is at liberty to independently organize clubman championships in addition to hosting the national championship. The TSA clubman championship is the East Africa Superbike Championship (EASBC).

Lady Rider of the Year: Amina Reeve (412) Changes for 2020 1) The National Superbike Circuit Racing Championship (NSCRC) was renamed National Superbike Championship (NSC) 2) The Motorcycle Sports Federation of Kenya (MSFK) was registered. Due to confusion of names between the Kenya Motorsports Federation (FIA licence holder which organizes car racing) and Kenya Motorsports Foundation (FIM licence holder which organizes motorcycle sports); and also to comply with the Kenya Sports Act, it was seen fit to register the MSFK to take over motorcycle sports. 3) Races shall be timed using transponders. Some of you may be wondering “Who is the Motorcycle Sports Federation of Kenya (MSFK) and why are they relevant to us superbike racers? Why do we need to be governed by them?” FIM, founded in 1904, is the governing body for motorcycle sport and the global advocate for motorcycling. In 1998 the FIM created six Continental Unions (CONUs) which are recognized geographic subdivisions of the FIM. The African CONU is known as FIM-Africa. As the local representative of the FIM, FIM-Africa is responsible for promoting and growing motorcycling across the African continent – not only in respect of motorcycle sporting events organised under its jurisdiction, but also for other non- sporting matters such as leisure riding, touring, road safety; environmental awareness; medical and safety matters and increasing the number of women in all spheres of motorcycling. P a g e 3 | 13 NATIONAL SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP (NSC) Each CONU comprises of a number of national bodies known as Fédération Motocycliste Nationale (FMN). An FMN is the National Motorcycle Federation or other national body recognised by the FIM as the sole holder of sporting power in the country. In our case, MSFK is Kenya’s only FMN and exercises delegated power from FIM. FIM currently has 113 affiliated members with 14 in Africa namely: South Africa, Kenya, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, Madagascar, Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia.

The license which would ordinarily cost Ksh. 14,000 has been discounted by 71% in order to encourage participation in the 2020 season. Each competitor shall therefore be required to pay MSFK Ksh. 4,000. Junior riders (under 18) shall also pay Ksh. 4,000; ordinarily their license would cost Ksh. 12,000. This represents a 67% discount. Fees paid to MSFK are used to run the secretariate. Each club organizing a round of the NSC also charges an entry fee used to fund the event. In the case of TSA adults shall pay Ksh. 3,500 per event and juniors Ksh. 1,500. The club shall also generate revenues from penalties such as late registration and late scrutineering on race day.

It outlines a range of issues affecting motorcycling in Australia and sets out directions to be taken by the industry over the next three years (2017–2020). These will reinforce the status of motorcycling as an important transport mode offering significant benefits to regulators, planners, and communities, and to the riders themselves. The document is relevant to the importers and retailers who constitute the motorcycle industry, government agencies (from national regulators to local planners), and stakeholders in related industries – in fact, anyone with an interest in motorcycling.

  • Picking on Poor People: Outlawing Minibikes and Atvs

    Picking on Poor People: Outlawing Minibikes and Atvs

    Picking on Poor People: Outlawing minibikes and ATVs Providence and Cranston seem to regard themselves as cities under siege from two-wheeled minibikes and four-wheeled all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) on their streets. “The use of dirt bikes and ATVs on our streets is illegal and is a serious danger,” said Providence Mayor Jorge O. Elorza in a statement on the city’s official website. But why are they illegal? And are they really dangerous? In terms of safety, minibikes are not inherently more dangerous than motorcycles if operated with proper equipment, particularly a helmet. If anything, their smaller engine sizes likely make them safer, all other factors being equal. My inference is that they are illegal only because they are illegal: RI General Laws §31-3.2-1(8) defines the prohibited class “’Recreational vehicle’ means a motor vehicle including minibikes designed to travel over unimproved terrain and which has been determined by the division of motor vehicles as unsuitable for operation on the public way and not eligible for registration for such use.” But that clause goes on to allow “golf mobiles or golf carts, riding lawn mowers, or garden tractors, which are not registered as farm vehicles,” before again explicitly prohibiting “any three (3) wheel driven vehicle and any other four (4) wheel driven vehicle, regardless of type or design, including all classes of all-terrain vehicles.” Aside from the horrifically bad drafting – you can’t do this, except you can do this, but you can’t do that – the distinguishing criterion seems to be the demographics of the users.
