The conference is held each January in Adelaide to coincide with South Australia’s pro cycling event the Tour Down Under. The Australian Cycling Conference 2013 was for the second year running held at the Science Exchange, 21-22 January. The Australian Cycling Conference is of national significance as it is the only forum in Australia to have a core aim of providing a forum for the presentation of rigorous research to inform cycling policy, programs and projects. The Conference also actively encourages academics, policy makers, and practitioners from governments and private sectors, as well as community organisations, to exchange knowledge about all forms of cycling. Cycling spans institutional boundaries drawing experts from governments, communities and private organisations. Once again the Australian Cycling Conference 2013 papers range across disciplinary boundaries bringing together researchers and professionals from transport, engineering, health, geography, urban planning, tourism and events and sociology, in particular the sociology of gender. Those attending the conference were welcomed by the Lord Mayor of Adelaide, the Hon. Stephen Yarwood. The Lord Mayor has a vision for Adelaide which has people and places at the centre and which aims to reduce the dominance of motor vehicles. In his welcome he noted the many cycling and other people and place developments in Adelaide. He also expressed his pleasure in having the Adelaide City Council sponsor the Conference keynote speaker Dr Rajendra Ravi, Director of the Institute for Sustainability and Democracy, New Delhi in India. Dr Rajendra Ravi has a high profile in India. The Conference organisers were aware of the significant work he had undertaken in advocacy campaigns, including leading a case through the Indian court system and eventually winning in the Supreme Court. As a result, rickshaw riders in India now have a Constitutional right to use the roads, whereas in the past they were being removed from increasingly car dominated roads. Dr Ravi’s advocacy has been especially successful in relation to supporting Indian women to ride as a form of emancipation and to achieve their right to mobility. A major focus of his conference address was the role of rickshaws and other cycles in providing livelihoods for low income people and so the perspective he presented was a very different one to the focus on cycles and mobility common to Australian cycling advocacy and research. Dr Ravi’s presentation was wonderfully illustrated with many photographs of the huge diversity of cycles in India. The Australian Cycling Conference had major input in 2012 from a senior Nigerian delegation, and in 2013 from Dr Ravi. These contributions have stimulated thinking in Australia and broadened our understandings of agendas of cycling worldwide. Two papers included in this collection directly provided commentary on the theme Everybody’s Cycling. Papers authored by Ian Radbone and Gemma Kernich provide overviews of national and state data surveys, and provide a nuanced perspective of cycling activity across Australia. Not everybody is cycling, but then again, more people are cycling more often. The editors of this collection have included both refereed and non-refereed papers. However, as an initiative first introduced at the 2012 conference, non-refereed papers were submitted for Organising Committee review. The review process was instituted as a means of developing and enhancing the quality of all Conference papers. The Organising Committee sought written papers from all authors as a means of creating a durable record of the knowledge and experience contained in those papers that can be used and further developed by researchers, practitioners and policy makers into the future. This objective was substantially achieved. The review papers were perused by appropriately qualified members of the Organising Committee and comments for strengthening the papers were passed on to authors. Refereed papers were subject to an independent double blind refereeing process. Refereed papers were reviewed by experts in their fields, and in most cases there was both an Australian and an international reviewer. It is our hope that the peer reviewed papers will go on to publication in peer 5th Australian Cycling Conference Page i Preface reviewed academic journals or other relevant publications, further lifting the profile of cycling and walking in cities. We only request that prior publication in the Australian Cycling Conference 2013 Proceedings be acknowledged. Also please let us know by email of successful publication. Reviewing and refereeing papers is a time consuming, unpaid, skilled and entirely necessary professional activity which is largely invisible. We appreciate the work of the experts who participated in our refereeing process. The Australian Cycling Conference Organising Committee is grateful to those paper author/presenters for preparing papers ahead of the conference and, when requested, for reworking their papers by responding to reviewers’ suggestions. It is our view that the quality of the papers and the presentations has been improved through the additional labour contributed by authors. Stronger argument with more persuasive
