Three years ago a Special Interest Group on Global Nonmotorized Transportation (NMT) under the leadership of V. Setty Pendakur assembled the first Record on international NMT. The special interest group became a TRB task force and issued a second Record on the same subject. This record in compiled from the papers presented at the Annual Meeting of the Transportation Research Board TRB in January 1993. NMT in China is one focus of discussion. The bicycle is a major transportation mode in China, and the five papers on NMT in China reflect this. Each discusses a different aspect of bicycle transportation in that country.
