This issue of Current Topics includes over 65 abstracts of reports, conference papers, books and journal articles which focus on cycling safety, including cyclist behaviour, road safety training for cyclists, prevention of injury to cyclists, design and effectiveness of cycle helmets, strength assessment of bicycles and studies of cycling accidents and accident risk.
