Easy to believe and a classic example of why one should be careful when reading stuff like this.

Cycling has greater numbers of injuries, not more injuries per man hour of activity, just greater numbers. By this measure running with the bulls is safe after all the number of injuries is low, of course so is the number of participants.

Actually all this says is that there are a lot of cyclists out there and from time to time they get hurt.
