For your child’s safety, it is your responsibility to review this information with your child and make sure that your child understands all warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics. We recommend that you periodically review and reinforce the information in this manual with younger riders and that you inspect and maintain your child’s scooter to insure their safety. 2 www.PyleUSA.com GENERAL WARNING Scooter riding can be a hazardous activity. Scooters can and are intended to move and it is therefore possible to get into dangerous situations and/or lose control and/or fall. If such things occur you can be seriously injured or die. Like any other moving product, using a scooter can be a dangerous activity and may result in injury or death even when used with proper safety precautions. Use at your own risk and use common sense. • Always wear safety equipment such as a helmet, knee pads and elbow pads. Always wear a helmet when riding your scooter and keep the chinstrap securely buckled. • Always wear shoes. • Ride on smooth, paved surfaces away from motor vehicles. • Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates and sudden surface changes. Scooter may suddenly stop.

Received: 4 November 2020; Accepted: 25 November 2020; Published: 26 November 2020 Abstract: Accidents related to electric kick scooters, which are widespread globally, are increasing rapidly. However, most of the research on them concentrates on reporting accident status and injury patterns. Therefore, while it is necessary to analyze safety issues from the user’s perspective, interviewing or conducting a survey with those involved in an accident may not return enough data due to respondents’ memory loss. Therefore, this study aims to identify the risk factors in the context-of-use for electric kick scooters based on a topic modeling method. We collected data on risk episodes involving electric kick scooters experienced by users in their daily lives and applied text mining to analyze text responses describing the risk episodes systematically. A total of 423 risk episodes are collected from 21 electric kick scooter users in South Korea over two months from an online survey.

    Let the People Ride Singletrack: Understanding Mountain Bike Trail Usage

    Let the people ride singletrack: Understanding mountain bike trail usage University of Bath: Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering MEng Civil and Architectural Engineering with year long work placement AR30315 Dissertation 3rd May 2020 Student: Octavia Lewis Academic Supervisor: Chris Blenkinsopp Abstract Mountain biking is a global sport with millions of participants. The sport has grown from a high-risk activity, undertaken by a handful of individuals in extreme environments, to one that can be enjoyed by many. Technological developments have made mountain biking increasingly accessible, in particular the advent of e-bikes. The most fundamental element to mountain biking is the location in which it is carried out. Although terrain can vary significantly, trails are integral to participation. The objective of this study was to understand mountain bike trail usage within the UK through investigation of when trails are used, the demographic of mountain bikers, their motivations for riding, and the impact of refurbishment on trail use. Usage was considered for a popular singletrack trail in Bristol, UK, quantified through analysis of data from rider counters installed in the trail. Demographic, motivations and refurbishment impact were evaluated through an online survey made available to anyone who had ridden the trail in the previous 12 months. The survey was advertised to users by installing a sign on site, distributing leaflets and sharing on online platforms. The format and design of the survey ensures that it is transferrable for future application to allow comparison and for use at trails elsewhere. Results from the analysis of rider counter data have identified temporal variations in trail usage dependent on time of year, day of the week, time of day, school holidays and events.

Willmotta,b, , Neil S. Maxwella a Environmental Extremes Laboratory, University of Brighton, Eastbourne, UK b Cambridge Centre for Sport and Exercise Sciences, Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, UK ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Background: This study quantified the metabolic and physiological responses towards a range of Scooter scootering speeds in a field-setting. Physical activity Methods: Ten participants (eight male, two female; mean ± standard deviation [SD] age: Active transport ̇ 21 ± 1 years; peak oxygen uptake [VO2peak]: 51.5 ± 6.0 mL/kg/min) completed a cycling Field-settings V̇O test and a 30-min scootering protocol. Energy expenditure (EE), metabolic equivalents Physiological responses 2peak (METs) and heart rate (HR) were recorded throughout. Results: Mean ± SD EE and METs increased (P < 0.001) linearly when scootering at; 6.0 km/hr (4.3 ± 1.9 kcal/min, 4.1 ± 0.4), 7.5 km/hr (5.2 ± 2.7 kcal/min, 4.7 ± 0.5), 9.0 km/hr (6.4 ± 2.6 kcal/min, 5.2 ± 0.6), 10.5 km/hr (6.9 ± 2.8 kcal/min, 5.8 ± 0.6) and 12.0 km/hr (8.2 ± 1.7 kcal/min, 6.3 ± 0.8), respectively. When scootering at these speeds, mean ± SD percentage of maximal HR were 51 ± 11%, 55 ± 7%, 60 ± 9%, 64 ± 11% and 71 ± 9%.
