We used rate ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) to compare hospitalization rates by type of cycling injury and anatomical site during two waves of the pandemic. We performed interrupted time series regression to assess the effect of lockdowns on monthly cycling injury hospitalization rates, according to age, sex and other characteristics.<\/p>\n\t\t <\/sec>\n       <sec>\n         <title>Results<\/title>\n\t\t<p>There were 2020 hospitalizations for cycling injuries between March 2020 and March 2021, including 617 during the first lockdown and 67 during the second lockdown. Compared with the period before the pandemic, risk of cycling-related injuries during the first lockdown increased the most for fractures (RR = 1.44; 95% CI: 1.26\u20131.64) and head and neck injuries (RR = 1.59; 95% CI: 1.19\u20132.12).
