Harlesden Mums Who Cycle was created in 2021 by Amandine Alexandre and Mary Mitchell, two mums wanting to spread the joy of cycling as a family in NW10.
Their aim is to encourage parents and carers – and specifically mums – to cycle with their children as part of their everyday life because it’s fun and practical. They do this by organising family friendly Sunday rides as well as giving the opportunity to parents to try out cargo bikes and other family-friendly cycle equipment.
The community group organised regular Sunday rides for parents, carers and children between 2021 and 2023. At the start of 2025, Harlesden Mums Who Cycle also launched a bike bus between Willesden Green in Brent and West Hampstead in Camden, in collaboration with local parents and volunteers in the area.
