Andy Calton, recently promoted to editor of MCN, makes his first public appearance tomorrow (Wed 28 Aug) at the National Motorcycle Conference, Leicester, where he will talk about the part the motorcycle media can play in promoting motorcycle safety.
Organised by the Association of Industry Road Safety Officers (AIRSO), the conference will host a series of speakers discussing the role of technology in safety as well as changes in road craft and the theory behind rider behaviour.
Karen Cole, the MCIA’s head of safety, will co-chair the conference, which will include a question and answer session.
“It’s vital that everyone in the industry, including dealers and suppliers, keeps abreast of what’s going on with road safety,” said Cole.
Tickets at £85 a pop are available from AIRSO’s Graham Feest on 07974814116.
The conference is at the Hinckley Island Hotel, junction one off the M69. It starts 9am and finishes at 4.30pm. For details of key speakers and how to attend, see the website: http://www.airso.org.uk/ under conference.
