Cycling
Based on national injury reports, cycling is the most common cause of sports-related injury in Australia for children, accounting for more than a quarter of all childhood sports injuries. It is also a major cause of injuries in adults, accounting for about 10% of adult sports injuries.
However, because cycling is one of the most popular activities in Australia, especially for children, its injury rate is relatively low.
