Title: British adults want to cycle more but feel unable to make the final move Post by: Red Squirrel on April 24, 2014, 17:18:19 Quote British adults want to cycle more but feel unable to make the final move An in depth study of British adults' attitudes to cycling over the last four years has found that a large number want to cycle more for everyday short journeys but feel unable to do so ^ with a major factor almost certainly being that they feel intimidated by sharing the roads with motor traffic. The survey also shows that people now believe that cyclists should be taken seriously (68%), that they are doing their bit for the environment and that they are actually rather brave (50%).
