Motorcycling is more popular than ever in our country, what could be better than crossing the country on a sunny day with your motorcycle. From industry association data BOVAG shows that next month the 800.000e, motorcycle is registered in the Netherlands. There are more than 1,5 million motorcycle license holders in our country and sales of new motorcycles are at their highest level in 15 years. The province of Drenthe has the highest number of motorcyclists, 11,7 percent. Followed by the province of Zeeland with 10,5 percent. The provinces of Gelderland, Overijssel and Friesland are in third place with 9,5 percent. The province of South Holland has the least number of motorcyclists, namely 6,9 percent.
“The influence of the pandemic on the popularity of motorcycling is evident, as on the one hand public transport was avoided for commuting and on the other hand many people were looking for recreational time use. Many motorcycle license owners thus picked up an old hobby and many of them are now also experiencing the benefits of this daily with the now increased traffic jams”.
