28th February 2022 The Spokesmen Cycling Podcast EPISODE 293: Beacons with Kevin Mayne SPONSOR: Jenson USA HOST: Carlton Reid GUEST: Kevin Mayne, Chief Executive, Cycling Industries Europe TOPICS: 40 minutes or so with Brussels-based Kevin Mayne the Chief Executive of Cycling Industries Europe, the bike industry advocacy group. We talked beacons. You know, the detection or connection tech I've been banging on about since 2018, and which potentially has ethical and safety ramifications for all forms of cycling, and just getting about as a pedestrian for that matter. Kevin puts my mind at rest, at least from an advisory groups point of view. I'm still not too sure the bike industry is fully cognisant of the concerns myself and others have got but hopefully the industry's enthusiasm for the latest tech will be the tempered by those who have the interests of ALL cyclists at heart, not just those who can afford to sport detection tech.
