Increased use of bicycles and other human-powered cycles for transportation is one way to slow climate change while providing health and economic benefits. HF/E professionals can make valuable contributions to this effort through research on actual and perceived barriers to utility (transportation) cycling and on effective means to reduce these barriers.
