Mountain Biking with Groups: A "Safe" Activity?
Allen, Terry
Horizons, n13 p33-35 Spr 2001
A survey mailed to 200 British mountain bike leaders found that rates of cycling accidents and injuries were greater in forests and woodlands than on terrain where a license is required to lead groups of young cyclists. Excessive speed was mentioned in most accidents, coupled with poor use of breaks in many cases. (SV)
