Nowadays, more and more people are opting for cycling, either to migrate to and from work or as recreation, so cyclists need to be provided with usable and safe cycling surfaces. We had measured three segments of cycling surfaces and compared them with reference segment. We measured acceleration, steering input and cycling speed. Results are presented, commented and evaluated. We also measured some specifics on cycling surfaces that pose challenges to cyclists. A survey was also conducted to obtain and analyse the opinion of cycling population regarding cycling surfaces.
