How to encourage more women to cycle?

No. There was one year when female deaths were higher, every other year it's been more men - but we're talking really small numbers here - by which I obviously don't mean they're any more acceptable, I just mean I think it's an arbitrary characteristic that's about as useful as saying people with blue jumpers are more likely to be run over.

Also we never know what really happened in those accidents and the focus (media and LFGSS) tends to be on women's skills and attitudes. But what about the driver? (all men by the way). What are their driving skills, what are their attitudes around (female) cyclists?
