Dr. Rock also indicated to speak. It is regrettable that our starting point is where it is. We have a long way to go and much to do. I have a question about sociocultural behaviour barriers. I am aware of #andshecycles and know advocates in that area. They are great. At the minute, they are not representative of broader society. We need people to show leadership. There is a lack of cultural acceptance for girls cycling. Can more be done about that? What immediate things do we need to do, such as showing leadership?
