“…In the present study, we focus on gender differences in characteristics of bicycle crashes. We used data on cyclists' crashes in Italy, which can be considered a country with low-cycling culture or emerging cycling culture (Aldred & Jungnickel, 2014;Oosterhuis, 2016). Compared to cyclists in other European countries, Italian cyclists tend to report positive attitudes towards cyclists but also the lowest ratings on infrastructure quality and provisions (Prati et al, 2019).…”

Previous research on gender differences in road crashes has focussed uniquely on car drivers and there has been little research examining such differences among cyclists. In this study, we investigated gender differences in bicycle crashes, using routinely recorded crash data. The present paper focussed on characteristics related to the type of crashes (type of collision and opponent vehicle), the infrastructure (road type and type of road segment), the environmental (season, road surface condition and weather) and time period (time of the day and day of the week). Results revealed that, compared to women cyclists, men cyclists were more likely to be involved in a crash regardless the cyclists' age. Moreover, we found gender differences in terms of type of road segment, type of opponent vehicle, type of manoeuvre of the opponent vehicle and of the cyclists, type of collision, time of the day, day of the week and season.

“…Sanderson. JD and Black.A (2003) With the research title The effect of prolonged on pedal forces for speed, in 2003 the sport of bicycle has examined the effect of lengthening the pedal force, and the results of the study are that extending the pedal force has a significant effect on speed besides that, Because physical fitness training is available, the most popular exercise is using a bicycle and then, that cycling ranks among the most popular sports activities (Oosterhuis, 2016). So many people who use these activities.…”

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui korelasi antara VO2 Max pedaling posisi duduk dan berdiri terhadap kecepatan. Sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah sepuluh atlet junior DKI Jakarta. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif. Instrumen yang digunakan pada penelitian ini menggunakan ergocycle untuk mengukur VO2 Max dan untuk mengukur kecepatan menggunakan cyclo. Analisis data menggunakan SPSS versi 20. Hasil analisis dan perhitungan data mengungkapkan bahwa VO2 max dan posisi pedaling memiliki hubungan yang signifikan terhadap kecepatan bersepeda, kemudian posisi pedalling berdiri lebih cepat dibandingkan dengan posisi pedaling duduk. Serta implikasi yang diharapkan dapat membantu dari segi program latihan.

“…week Tour de France competition itself is more appropriately labeled as a mega sport event (Ferbrache, 2013) it lacks the universal appeal achieved by other mega sport events such as the FIFA World Cup or the Olympics resulting in this label being contested (Oosterhuis, 2016).…”

The purpose of this study is to examine how effective the international promotion of a sport event is on changing the destination image prior to the event if the sport event lacks global popularity. The authors conducted a quasi-experimental posttest research design, in which they used promotional information of a Tour de France stage to manipulate the destination image nonvisitors (N = 3,505) from nine different nations have of the hosting city, 5 months prior to the actual event. Results show that treating the international market as a homogeneous entity might be deceptive, as the effect of the event was different from nation to nation, pending on the popularity of the event or sport in the specific nation, and whether the nation itself offered similar events.
