OXFORD cycle pressure group Cyclox hosted a major national conference at Cheney School in Headington.

Called Cycling for the Climate, the conference examined the relationship between urban design and cycling with talks by Mark Lynas, the Wolvercote-based environmental journalist, and Dr Alison Hill of Cycling England.

The conference also discussed campaigns for better cycle facilities in the UK.

Last month, Cyclox published a 13-page report that stated cyclists' lives were at risk in more than a dozen danger areas across Oxford.

The report was published six months after the death of Oxford University student Tsz Fok, 22, killed when his cycle was involved in a collision with a lorry in the city centre.
