UCL seeks volunteers for ‘100 Cyclists’ project

University College London (UCL) is looking for 100 of the Capital’s cycle commuters to take part in a study.

The ‘100 Cyclists’ project seeks to understand the factors affecting crash risk in cycling through the analysis of detailed near miss data. 

In total, 100 participants are being recruited. Participants will have a specially made sensor unit mounted to their bike to collect video and movement data while they ride. When they experience a near miss, the rider will press a button to store the data. 

The data will then be analysed at UCL to identify the factors that are commonly associated with near misses.

Would you like to be involved?
UCL is looking for people aged 18 years or over who cycle in London using their own bike as part of their commute to work. 

It is particularly interested in people who use Cycle Superhighways 4, 7, 9 or 11 for all or part of their route. 

If you are interested in taking part please register your interest by email: 100cyclists-study@ucl.ac.uk.
