ABSTRACT

This study explores the safety hazards and countermeasures associated with self-organized cycling activities among university students, with a focus on intercity cycling events involving students from Zhengzhou and Kaifeng. The research identifies safety concerns related to traffic, physical fitness, and equipment through a review of literature and theoretical analysis. It examines key risk factors from perspectives such as safety management, risk identification, and behavioral analysis. By integrating response strategies from universities, government authorities, and bike-sharing companies, the study proposes collaborative safety management recommendations. Findings indicate that significant safety risks exist in self-organized cycling activities, primarily due to the lack of standardized management. The study concludes that safety education by universities, improved infrastructure by the government, and optimized equipment maintenance by companies can effectively mitigate risks, ensuring the healthy development of outdoor campus activities.
