Public bikesharing—the shared use of a bicycle fleet—has recently emerged in major North American cities. Bikesharing has been found to decrease driving and increase bicycling. But shifts in public transit have been mixed. The authors evaluate survey data from two U.S. cities to explore who is shifting toward and away from public transit as a result of bikesharing. The authors explore this ques...

Cities are making infrastructure investments to make travel by bicycle safer and more attractive. A challenge for promoting bicycling is effectively using data support decision ensuring that represent all communities. However, ecologists have been addressing a similar type of question decades developed an approach stratifying landscapes based on ecozones or areas with homogenous ecology. Our go...

Bicycling-related injury data are difficult to obtain from official reports, which capture only about 20% of crashes and often lack coordinates, outcomes, narratives needed for understanding where why incidents occurred. Crowdsourced on bicycling safety provides new opportunities the study risk. Our goal was quantify factors that influence spatial variation in unsafe across a city, based self-r...

In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, patients having breathing issues more than balance are seen, but in this case fear of fall is seen because reduced physical capacity and social isolation. Due to function exercise tolerance reduced. 10 minutes aerobic exercises (bicycling treadmill walking) training uneven surface if done for 6 weeks. Six-minute walk test berg scale used evaluate. There...
