Biomechanics of bicycling talk

Mont Hubbard will present two research projects involving bicycles being developed at the UC Davis Sports Biomechanics Laboratory.

The event is at the Tahoe Center for Environmental Sciences 291 Country Club Drive, Incline Village, on May 12 at 5:30.

One project addresses fundamental questions of balance and rider control. Using special bicycles that have been augmented with scientific instruments and techniques previously used in Aeronautics, researchers at UC Davis are studying how human “pilots” intuitively control bicycles.

The no-host bar opens at 5:30pm, program begins at 6pm. A $5 donation is requested.
