Parental perceptions of cycle skills training for adolescents

Conclusions Nearly three-quarters of parents perceived that their adolescents would benefit from participation in CST. Parental perceptions that cycling to school is important and unsafe, and having fewer vehicles at home were associated with favourable parental perceptions of CST for adolescents. Future interventions should also involve parents and consider offering CST in secondary schools as a part of the efforts to promote active transport to school.
