Abstract:This report is a program user’s manual for the Cycling in the African American Community (CAAC) safety training intervention. The CAAC safety training intervention was designed to “nudge” more African Americans, who are often beginning cyclists or non-cyclists, to participate in a physical activity that promotes health and builds community. One of the most cited reasons for not riding is that cycling is perceived as being unsafe. The CAAC intervention attempts to address this issue through a carefully designed safety intervention that encompasses a pre and post survey, used in conjunction with an on-road cycling curriculum. The report includes best practices for staging the intervention and analyzing outcomes. Preliminary findings show that the safety training is significantly improving perceptions of cycling.
