The world of mobility is being digitized, resulting in an intelligent transportation system (ITS). Bicyles can play a significant role in this, and can even become a key pillar of a sustainable, safe and effective mobile society. However, so far they are not fully integrated into the new era, which will bring potential risks due to the shared road infrastructures and unexpected cycling behaviour. This proposal aims to build up a collaborative research community and co-organize a competition on making bikes smarter by leveraging the digital technologies. We envision that the bicycles, the infrastructure and road users, will constantly interact with each other. The participants can use real-time data collection, wireless communication and data analytics to make cycling safer, more comfortable, and healthier.
