Replication Data for: Age-related balance difficulties during shoulder checks increase cycling risk in older adults

This dataset was created for a study investigating age-related declines in cycling skills, specifically during the shoulder check. In the experiment, participants cycled in a straight lane while performing a shoulder check to identify the color of an object placed behind them.
The dataset includes inertial measurement unit (IMU) data collected from the handlebars, frame, pelvis, and torso of 40 young adults (22.86 ± 1.53 years) and 41 older adults (62.73 ± 1.57 years). It also contains records of task errors, including interrupted cycling, incorrect color identification, and cycling outside the lane.
From the IMU data, we derived the relative range of motion of the frame, pelvis, and torso sensors, the standard deviation of the steering angle, and the task duration. The MATLAB scripts used to compute these parameters, along with the subsequent statistical analyses, is included in the dataset.
