We are very pleased to welcome Peter Riley from Helite UK, the premier manufacturer of motorcycle airbags who will join us at Over Community Centre to offer Members & Associates a presentation on his company’s products. The evening starts at 7:30pm
Helite was founded in 2002 in Dijon, France by Gérard Thévenot, an engineer specialising in fluid mechanics and a passionate fan of light aeronautics. Thévenot wanted to create personal protective equipment for high-risk sports by offering airbags adapted to the needs of motorcyclists, horse riders & cyclists. The high accident rate in these pursuits led to the first patent for personal protection airbags.
We will learn in detail about how the airbag system works, which parts of your body are protected, how long it takes to inflate and what it is like to ride with an airbag. There will also be guidance on choosing the most appropriate model from the range.
We’ve allowed time for a Q&A session – so please come armed with your questions! If you already own a motorcycle airbag, please do consider attending so you can share your experience with your fellow CAM members.
You are welcome to bring guests – please assist with the room booking and seating arrangements by emailing us at events@cambsiam.org.uk if you plan on attending!
