Abstract

(en) E-cycles may offer an opportunity to increase cycling levels. However, experimental findings should be complemented with longitudinal observational studies examining the effects of starting to e-cycle on cycling levels in real-life settings. The current study among Flemish and Dutch middle-aged and older adults (≥45 years) aimed to compare changes between two time points in total (conventional + e-cycling) and conventional cycling frequencies of participants who started e-cycling against participants who did not e-cycle, who e-cycled at both time points and who stopped e-cycling.
