  • I interviewed 12 people, all from various Facebook cycling groups, of varied demographic.

  • You are introducing sampling bias by going to social media/cycle groups. If you want to find out what people on Facebook cycling groups think then that's fine, if you want to draw conclusions about what people who cycle think then or what a representative cross section of the public think you'll have to find a more random way to find interviewees. You'll probably need more to draw any decent conclusions.

  • Thank you, that will just have to be one of my limitations regarding my research and something that I or someone else can draw upon in later research.
