abstract="The increased popularity of bicycling and concomitant increased frequency of accidents point up the need for assessing skills related to bicycle riding so that remedial action may be taken for cyclists with poor skills.  The aim of this study was to establish a test battery that would differentiate between individuals of varying skill levels.  20-5 volunteer subjects in three age groups (15 or younger, 16-25, and 26 or older) were tested on five riding performance variables and on 13 physical and perceptual-motor ability factors thought to be related to riding performance.  A number of physical and perceptual-motor abilities were significantly correlated with riding performance variables a principal components analysis was used to identify three components of cycling skill, the first two of which were found to be positively associated with riding performance.  Predictive equations based on these two components were provided, and recommendations for bicycle skill assessment given.<p />",
