The risks of cycling

[srw]

It's been lost in the middle of a motor-bike crash of what was once an interesting thread, but this article is worth saving. Everyone should read and understand this article - and apply its lessons. It's the best graphical illustration of risk I've read in some time.

Thanks to @Fab Foodie for the tip-off.

Maybe this will help .... a great article on the risks (or lack) of cycling in London ....

It is an interesting way to demonstrate the numbers and shows it is not all doom and gloom. But the rise in figures over the last couple of years is cause for concern and it is the responsibility of everyone to find a way to get the numbers going the other way. In my opinion the first step is to get individuals to start looking at themselves to see what they can do to make it safer for themselves.
