BCCOM

ion. Since its inception, BCCOM has evolved into so much more, becoming instrumental in the promotion of motorcycle safety, education and awareness in BC. BCCOM has increased the profile of the motorcycling community on both provincial and municipal levels of government. We have ensured input into government policies and legislation that affect the motorcycling lifestyle, be it sport, street or off-road riding. BCCOM endorses, recognizes and supports all aspects of motorcycling, from street and touring all the way to racing and off-road riding. BCCOM is a membership driven organization that relies solely on membership dues to maintain a strong voice for the motorcycling community. ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
