| War Office Library copy of the Mobilisation Regulations updated for 1914 |
Britain declares war on Germany after they refuse
to withdraw from Belgium. Mobilisation begins and many motorcyclists are trapped in Europe having travelled for the International Six Day Trial due to start yesterday.
Back home Mobilisation begins according to a predefined plan. Motorcyclists rush to their nearest recruitment
