Hi folks, this is an X-Post from the industry news section so I apologize if you have already seen it.
I'm running a campaign to make compact car horns fit for bicycles so you can alert drivers and prevent accidents.

This is the link to the kickstarter page: Car horn for your bike

We have over 200 people signed up so far but the project won't move forward unless we get enough orders to make a large production run.

You can also help by getting some of our awesome stickers which really describe the change in perspective that bike-car horns herald.


Thanks so much for your support and I'll be glad to answer any questions,

Happy biking!

I am doing 50 things at once right now, but will have a peek later this weekend.

Question for you, to clear some matters up.

What's the story with your friend that you mention in your video?

You show a ghost bike, which implies your friend was killed due to a collision, but then there's a rumor floating around your friend is actually alive and well which would make the idea of showing a ghost bike a bit. . .

My friend is indeed alive and fine. It was difficult to present the gravity of the situation without making the video too heavy. That particular bike is a memorial to a friend of a friend that was killed earlier this year at MIT (link below), an extremely sad story as they always are.
