A Scottish study of 83k individuals over 17 years found commuting by bike halves the risk of early death: bmjpublichealth.bmj.com/content/2/1/.... The one outlier hazard ratio for people on bikes casts a harsh light on the Ford government's quest to destroy safe infrastructure in Toronto. #BikeTO

I have no problem believing the results of that study. The problem is that the lack of bicycle infrastructure along my commute to work combined with the well earned reputation of the local drivers makes those first two observations questionable at best.

That’s a powerful finding. How can we push for safer bike infrastructure everywhere?

If we could put cycling in a pill, it would be the blockbuster drug to end all blockbuster drugs. (I'm also surprised that the mortality improvements for pedestrians seem much smaller than for cyclists.)
