As serious leisure cyclists increase their presence on Australian public roads, there have been reports within the popular and mainstream literature of a growing tension between these cyclists and other road users. Until now, there has been limited research exploring the relationship between serious leisure cyclists and other road users as it pertains to issues of safety and motivations to cycle for leisure. This mixed methods research provides insights into a particular cohort of serious leisure cyclists and their experiences of sharing the roads with motorists. Analysis reveals a range of concerns amongst this sub-group, mediated by factors such as age, experience and environment. The paper calls for a differential focus on sub-groups of cyclists when considering policy formation, regulation and safe provision for cyclists on roads.
随着热衷于休闲骑行的自行车手在澳大利亚公共道路上越来越常见，大众和主流文献中也出现了关于这些自行车手与其他道路使用者之间日益紧张的关系的报道。到目前为止，对于热衷于休闲骑行的自行车手与其他道路使用者之间的关系，以及与安全和休闲骑行动机相关的问题，相关研究还很有限。本混合方法研究深入探讨了特定群体的热衷于休闲骑行的自行车手与机动车驾驶员共享道路的体验。分析揭示了这一亚群体存在的一系列担忧，这些担忧受到年龄、经验和环境等因素的影响。本文呼吁在考虑道路自行车手的政策制定、法规和安全保障时，要针对不同的自行车手群体进行有区别的关注。
