Our vision is to transform our city into a healthier, cleaner and happier place to live, where cycling is a preferred mode of transport and any Londoner can ride the streets conveniently and without fear for their safety.
To achieve this we lobby decision-makers at all levels, presenting them with rational arguments for encouraging bicycle use above motorised transport, which include:
- improved public health
- reduced congestion
- zero CO2 emissions
- less air and noise pollution
- reduction in road danger
- widespread economic benefits

Benefits and services
We provide a range of benefits exclusively to our members, and offer professional and individual cycling products & services, such as cycle parking audits and cycle theft insurance.
We also run a successful programme with Transport for London to promote community cycling across Greater London.
