Welcome to SMUG

Who are Smug?

SMUG was set up in the Summer of 2005 by scooter riders and motorcyclists within the University of Bath.

The Aims of SMUG are:

  1. To represent the best interests of all scooter riders and motorcyclists within the University, for instance by participation on the University Transport Committee.
  2. To provide advice and support to current and 'would be' scooter riders and motorcyclists through a dedicated web site, e-mail list (smug@lists.bath.ac.uk) and discussion forum.

 

Latest News and Forthcoming Events

  • May 2012: Loss of some Underdeck Motorcycle Parking

    Richard Law, Security Manager for the University, has informed us
    that the western-most motorcycle parking area in the under-deck,
    which is the cross-road located opposite 3-West, has been closed
    for the duration the 3-west refurbishment, an estimated 3 years.

    The eastern-most motorcycle bay in the under-deck, which is the
    cross road opposite the 2-West loading bay, will also lose some
    spaces due to the placement of a metal storage container within
    that area. It is not yet known when these will be available again.
