Fig 2 Trade-off of benefits to harms for cycling in central London: effects by age and sex, per million population (although few older people used cycle hire). Benefits come through impacts on diseases related to physical activity, harms come from exposure to road traffic injuries (see table 28 in appendix 4). Results use background injury rates and so should be interpreted as the trade-off for cycling in general in the cycle hire zone and not for specifically using cycle hire bicycles (which may carry lower risks of injury)
