Very cool study looking for participants of the cyclist variety

Hey y'all. One of my connections—a uVic-based researcher + executive director of BikeMaps.org—is seeking participants for what looks to be a really meaningful study. (As I completed the initial questionnaire, I was impressed by both the depth and the sophistication with which it delves beyond 'activities' and 'lifestyle' into matters of emotional well-being, sense of belonging, mental health and so on. Really important stuff.)

There's not much to it. In fact, your willingness to download an app and answer the occasional questionnaire—most no longer than a question or two—is all that's required to participate.

Here's Karen's pitch. Get in touch!

Victoria is one of several cities around the world investing in infrastructure to encourage more people of all ages and abilities to cycle. But Victoria’s investment isn’t just about becoming a world-class cycling city. Could a bike-friendly city also make it a happier and healthier place to live? Join hundreds of people across Victoria gathering data in this SFU-led research study on how the new infrastructure impacts not only where they ride, but their health, social connection, and well-being.

grrrr.

This is due to the answer I gave to one sign-up question. We won't be living in Victoria two years from now due to a probable relocation back to Europe.

I just finished this survey, it was very simple to complete, and even had the "tracking devise" delivered to my house-and picked up.
Totally recommend supporting this survey.
