Abstract

Elderly cyclists are at high risk for a cycling accident, often followed by severe morbidity or mortality. Therefore, there is a chance that they discontinue a major form of autonomous and healthy mobility or have a cycling incident. By means of this case description, it is illustrated which steps should be taken by the doctor in guiding elderly, in order to remain safe cycling as long as possible.
