Commuter Bike Manufacturer Linus Bike Applauds Petition for Cycle Awareness
Commuter Bike Manufacturer Linus Bike Applauds Petition for Cycle Awareness
Bohemia, NY (PRWEB) February 13, 2013
On February 13, 2013, Linus Bike, a commuter bike manufacturer, offered its support for a petition proposed by Kibworth, England local Mike Higgins to include cycle awareness as part of the driving exam.
In a recent report from Harborough Mail, Mike Higgins, a cyclist from Kibworth, created a petition to include cycle awareness as part of the driving exam. The article states that Higgins believes that knowledge regarding cyclists on the roads must be improved and that the best way to remedy it is to begin training drivers on cyclist awareness.
The article reports that within less than a week Higgins has gathered over 5,500 signatures. In addition, the petition is being supported by cycling legend Chris Boardman and British Cycling.
“I’m not trying to say all cyclists are good and all drivers bad. I do feel that it is a lottery at the moment. Some people know how to overtake, some don’t,” Higgins states in the article.
According to the article, the death of a Kibworth man named Adam Bennett has partly prompted the petition. Bennett passed away in November following a collision on Bruntingthorpe Road. “This year UK drivers have knocked too many people off bikes including Bradley Wiggins,” Higgins explains.
“With London 2012 and Wiggo’s win at the Tour De France, more people will be on the road, so awareness will be more important.” Higgins continues, “The other day it just hit me that perhaps people just need to be trained in how and when to overtake. They do it for horses!”
The Harbourough Mail reports that Higgins is hopeful to invoke a debate in Parliament after obtaining the required 100,000 petition signatures. “100,000 is a lot of signatures but I think once I get some momentum the story can build and it’s good to start locally,” says Higgins.
“The determination of one man who wants to change the world is inspiring,” comments China Reevers, a representative of commuter bike manufacturer Linus Bike. “Linus Bike supports the cycling community and outwardly speaks on behalf of road safety everywhere. We offer our support for Mr. Higgins’ petition and look forward to this change in legislature.”
Linus Bike is a California-based bicycle manufacturer that specializes in creating vintage style city bikes and commuter bikes. Not simply a bicycle company, Linus Bike sells a complete line of accessories for the environmentally conscious and for those who have a fondness for European style bicycles and the great tradition of European cycling.

“It’s rewarding”, said Mark D. Graham, President of National Structured Funding®, “when you have an individual or family who needs a lump sum payment to start a new business, or for an unexpected life event, peace of mind, college tuition for a child, to pay off debt like a mortgage, or any other reason and you are able to help them and offer a higher payout as compared to the other national brands.”
With a large array of services being offered, and looking for stronger national coverage, it’s no surprise why National Structured Funding® turned to the expert video marketing services of Video Broadcast Services.
Video Broadcast Services began carving its name in the video marketing space with one goal in mind; to put the customer’s needs first.
“There are video marketing companies who give incorrect expectations to their clients and ultimately end up giving the industry a bad name”, said Marcia Hawkins, President of Video Broadcast Services. “We knew from day one that we wanted to be different. It has always been our goal to over-deliver for our clients. At the end of each video marketing campaign, we want our clients to feel that they received more than they paid for.”
From custom YouTube channels, to a consistant feeding of the search engines with their clients fresh and relevant content, Video Broadcast Services has quickly become the industry leader in video marketing.
“In some instances, Video SEO gets lumped in with Video Marketing”, said Kyle Clouse, Vide President of Video Broadcast Services. “We use the principles of search engine optimization as a foundation for our video marketing, but what we do is much more in-depth. In essence, we are creating online video billboards that are indexed and rank in the major search engines and remain for an indefinite amount of time”.
“Mini infomercials with strong calls to action” was part of Clouse’s thirty second elevator pitch. Not only do videos rank quicker and higher in the search engines over traditional websites, they also display a video thumbnail for increased branding and eyeballs. These are just a few of the reasons that is making video marketing an attractive method for marketing a business online.
Online trends are showing a distinctive shift of businesses moving more towards interactive video for branding and online awareness.
