Our vision is to transform our city into a healthier, cleaner and happier place to live, where cycling is a choice for any Londoner who wants to ride the streets conveniently and without fear.
To achieve this we lobby decision-makers at all levels, presenting them with evidence-based arguments for encouraging bicycle use before motorised transport, which include:
- widespread economic benefits
- improvements to public health
- reductions in road danger
- less motor traffic congestion
- zero CO2 emissions
- reduced air pollution
To find out more about what we advocate, please read Policy for a cycling city.
Benefits and services
We provide a range of benefits exclusively to our members, and offer cycling products and services, to individuals and organisations, including cycling-promotion events, cycle-parking audits and cycle theft insurance.
We also run a successful programme with Transport for London to promote cycling projects across Greater London.
