Cycling has the potential to play a key role in developing environmentally and socially sustainable cities and neighbourhoods in New Zealand. Realising this potential requires understanding how different groups within New Zealand society relate to existing patterns of cycling, and how they might respond to the introduction of a range of new cycling oriented infrastructures. Commenting on articles from the special issue “New research on cycling in New Zealand,” this article argues that human geographers and other social scientists have much to offer policy makers and planners in understanding how a transition to more people oriented, sustainable, urban mobility systems might be fostered.

骑自行车及其学习方法：看新西兰的情况

骑自行车有潜力在发展环境和社会可持续发展的新西兰城市和社区中发挥关键作用。要实现这种潜力，需要了解新西兰社会中的不同群体如何与现有的自行车模式相关联，以及他们如何应对一系列面向自行车的新型基础设施的引入。评论特别期刊“新西兰自行车新研究”中的文章时，本文认为，人类地理学家和其他社会科学家可以为决策者和规划者提供很多帮助，以使其了解如何过渡到以人为本的，可持续的，城市交通系统可能会得到培养。
