Normally, Ezra Klein blogs about politics, but a friend forwarded some interesting links on his blog about bicycling and safety. This post tackles the discrepancy in numbers between people who bicycle in Europe and in the U.S. I'm not sure that i agree with all his conclusions, but there is some interesting information there.

Also, check out these links on the same blog:

• Safety differences between Europe and US.
• Lessons from Europe on promoting cycling (from the Vancouver perspective).
