\*\* What scientific experiments would you like done if ethics was not a concern? Bicycle riding… ‘With’ traffic or against?\*\* “Comparative mortality among bicyclists riding with and against traffic” JIrreprodRes 27:195-206 2013 Abstract: One thousand bicyclists of varying ages and skill levels were randomized into two groups, one riding with and the other riding against traffic.

Even larger studies will be required to confirm these findings. ---
