The motion

That the Parliament welcomes the news that a Kirkcaldy company, which designs and manufactures products that utilise human movement to generate electricity, PeachyKeen, has won third place at the Ljubljana Smart Pedal Pitch 2022 in Slovenia; congratulates PeachyKeen on coming in third place for the development and manufacturing of a LED pedal, using fully recyclable components; notes that PeachyKeen's pedals provide 360-degree visibility that can be seen at a distance of up to 1km, which is especially useful at traffic lights and intersections, as they can blink for up to 7 minutes when stopped; considers that PeachyKeen's LED pedal will increase cyclists' safety while riding in low-light environments, and commends the team at PeachyKeen for their dedication, ingenuity, and vision in highlighting road safety issues for all road users.
