Even at the basic level there is a problem – why fewer and fewer children can ride a bicycle

Date:

Shocking: last year in Graz, almost half of the children failed the bicycle test! The problem is in basic skills like braking and driving straight. The parents are partly to blame and an increasingly popular competitor of the bicycle.

The snow is gone, temperatures are rising – at least slowly. Right now, after Easter, the time is right for many to get back on the saddle. But not everyone is ready to safely steer the bike in traffic – especially children. “Stay straight ahead or ride and brake with one hand,” says Werner Madlencnik from the Easy Drivers cycling school in Schladming, describing some of the skills they no longer have in his experience.
