Welcome to GET A GRIP!

This fantastic new road safety initiative for two wheelers was officially launched at the Carole Nash Motorcycle Live event at the NEC in Birmingham.

Support continues to arrive from the motorcycle industry and from those involved in Highway construction and casualty reduction.

But you, the riders, are the people who will make this campaign successful, by signing the petition, telling us about road defects and slippery manhole covers and together we'll improve the grip situation for everyone on two wheels.

This website will evolve  - so please make this the first of many visits. Thanks.

Keep an eye on the Roadshow page - experience a non-slip manhole cover and sign our petition in person!


GET A GRIP! - and make a difference.

 
GET A GRIP! If you use 2 wheels instead of 4...

... you’ll know how important it is to have consistent grip under your tyres.

 

Slipping on gravel or a manhole cover, especially in the wet, can be frightening at best, catastrophic at worst.

If visibility is good you will probably try to take avoiding action, but that can make you alter your line - a potentially hazardous activity too!

Potholes can have exactly the same effect, but with the added danger of suspension and wheel damage, or extreme deflection into oncoming traffic.
