The title says it all.
This used to be Bromfietsclub Royal
Nord but, as it organises one of Europe's biggest moped
rallies each year, the name was changed to more accurately
portray its activities.

This is a group of cyclemotor (particularly roller drive)
enthusiasts based around Bochum. Reiben und Rollen
translates to rub and roll in English - a reference to
this group's favoured transmission system. However, an
alternative translation is grate and mangle, which some
may consider equally appropriate.

This is not a traditional club, but an informal Dutch virtual network group of Kaptein and Motobécane enthusiasts where keywords like co-operation and communication keep the old wheels turning.

The BTSC is not specifically a cyclemotor club; it caters for
all two-strokes. But, since "The BTSC welcomes all
two-stroke enthusiasts, and all two-stroke machines, especially
those of British manufacture" and the vast majority of "power
& pedal" machines are two-strokes, it seems appropriate to
include it here.

The VMCC is a very large club catering for all types of motor cycles; it has a cyclemotor section: The Magic Wheelers
Once a thriving club of well over 2,000 members, continuing disputes within the
NACC since 2006 have led to a large
drop in membership and an even greater diminishing of the
services it offers to its members. Despite all this, it
still has a few friendly, active, local sections and can be worth
joining if you happen to live in an area served by such a
section.
Contact the Secretary: John Aston.
The members of the FBHVC are mainly clubs, museums and traders. One of its most important jobs is monitoring any impending British or European legislation that could have an adverse effect on the use of our machines. The EACC is a member of the FBHVC.

This club hosts the only major Vélosolex event in the USA, the Bastille Day Rendezvous, each year in July in New York City. There are no dues or presidents, etc, just a common love of our vehicles.
The Moped Riders Association has a comprehensive list of manuals in the repair section of its website and also a list of a few dealers. Their bikes maybe not quite as vintage as the ones we ride but the individuals are just as dedicated.
The VMBC is a club for out-of-production motor bikes.
"Motor Bike" means different things to British and
Americans. In the US, Whizzers and Cushmans are motor
bikes, a Harley Electra-Glide is a motor cycle.
