The British Motorcyclists Federation (BMF) is a motorcycle riders' rights group in the United Kingdom. The BMF was founded in 1960 as the Federation of National One Make Motorcycle Clubs to counter accusations of "leather-jacketed hooligans".[1] It renamed itself the BMF in 1965. The group lobbies for motorcyclists' interests at local, national and European levels.
