64% of bike trips made by women ?!! How did they do that ! @londoncycling.bsky.social @louisewass.bsky.social @beancycling.bsky.social @joyridersuk.bsky.social

Dutch late night TV has its take

Evidence shows more women cycle when our highways and public spaces are designed with women’s perspectives and lifestyles at the forefront, including ‘trip-chaining’ between various destinations. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

As styled on various happy jaunts - cycling with @parisenselle.fr, on the Greenway, at an endangered LTN in Tower Hamlets and at 'special bikes allowed' evening at Kew. Quality, sustainable and fun !

You too can own one of our fab t-shirts & support the cause! freedom-to-ride.teemill.com

Great presentation by the LCC Women's Network at the 2025 London Walking, Wheeling and Cycling Conference. Well done Kate! 👏 Reminder: London's Cycleways need to be routed through safe places - eg not parks - to work for everyone 24/7 🚨 lcc.org.uk/news/womens-...

Great to welcome @parisenselle.fr Camille and Flor for a ride round the good, the bad and the downright dangerous cycle routes in the east - and to admire @towerhamletsnow.bsky.social LTNs @joyridersuk.bsky.social @beancycling.bsky.social @lewishamcyclists.bsky.social @londoncycling.bsky.social

This is an emergency. The time to act is now. They aren’t slowing down, they aren’t changing course. Tell your MP why this matters. Tell them parliament makes law in this country, not the courts.

The EHRC is not changing course on their bathroom ban. They don’t care what the consultation said. So what happens now? 🧵 archive.ph/inGpF

🙏🏻🙏🏻 to @londoncycling.bsky.social local groups @lewishamcyclists.bsky.social and southwarkcycles for getting #DunwichDynamo riders and bikes back home safely yesterday. Great work,much appreciated ! Here's a 'before' pic - no need for 'after' ! @beancycling.bsky.social @benhouse.bsky.social

Great video about the expansion of cycling in London! Featuring @letsgetcracking.bsky.social in one of our fabulous t-shirts!

In case you were still in any doubt of the benefit of low traffic neighbourhoods…

I’ve nominated an inspirational woman to be considered for Cycling UK’s 100 Women in Cycling 2025! These awards recognise and celebrate women who inspire, encourage and empower others to cycle. You can nominate until 5pm, Monday 28 July. cyclinguk.org/100women/2025

MPs take historic first step to defend reproductive rights. Women will no longer face the threat of prosecution for taking decisions about their lives and families - but the fight is far from over goodlawproject.org/mps-take-his...

Anne Sacoolas left a US military base driving on the wrong side of the road. Shortly afterwards, she killed a vulnerable road user, Harry Dunn. Northamptonshire Police have been found to have mishandled this tragedy right from the off, denying Harry's family justice. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

As the author, I’m immensely proud of this report. But mainly I hope people read it and take notice. This is about the rise in ‘fake e-bikes’, and what’s driving it appgcw.org/resources/in...

June is Pride Month. Let's call out companies who show support for LGBTQ+ people while also advertising on GB News, a channel that pumps out LGBTQ+ hate. Tell these companies to pick a side - hate or Pride: action.goodlawproject.org/pick-side-ha...

Definitely not what I expected of my first @claptoncfc.co.uk away match but will never forget it. So powerful to have our players & both sets of fans united 🇵🇸 🏳️‍⚧️

There'll be more on this, but just a quick post to say how proud we are that both fans came together and refused to be intimidated by the venue's threats. A credit to both football clubs

Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs) work. The myths don’t. LTNs make streets safer, fairer, and greener. We can’t let misinformation block progress on clean air, climate, and health. It’s time to clear the air and cut through the noise 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

“Low-traffic neighbourhoods are often framed as inhibiting our ability to get around. But for many of us, they make getting around more possible & desirable – making space for community, for walking, for cycling.” Great article by Izzy @wearepossible.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Incredibile (& slightly exhausting) evening, listening to @robinince.bsky.social talking about… well, just about everything - including his new book at the Wanstead Tap

Brilliant video of the ride a couple of weeks ago with @newhamcyclists.uk & #saferstreetswoodgrange. Around 140 concerned local residents rode to call for Newham Council to take action to improve street safety youtu.be/d28t6-bbPao?...

A reminder of why I am a member of CCFC ❤️

Being part of the London march against the Supreme Court ruling was pretty amazing. So many people gathering in support of #transrights

We're working with Trans+ journalists on a rapid response explainer to today's significant Supreme Court ruling, which said the definition of a woman is based on 'biological sex' Make sure you're signed up for our newsletter to get our nuanced LGBTQIA+ perspective 👇 www.wearequeeraf.com/subscribe/

This feels quite hollow when the court also decided they didn't need to hear from a single transgender person over the course of their case.

Finally: your regular reminder that training for cyclists is fine, but unless you have obviously safe cycling infrastructure it's a bit like training kids to test their lunches for listeria because the school cooks can't be arsed with hygiene; basically a distraction from the actual problem.

My statement on today's ruling. First and foremost, to all other trans people: look after yourselves.

Honestly can’t believe what I’m reading. I thought this country was better than this. #transrights #transwomenarewomen #transmenaremen

“ ‘cyclists dismount’ or ‘footpath closed’ signs gathering like blossom drift around various-sized holes in the ground” Such a poetic opening to an article about roadworks 🚧 closing cycle lanes… @lauralaker.bsky.social lauralaker.substack.com/p/cyclists-d...

Up to 40 cycles per hour in each direction for part of the day is objectively a very, very long way from transforming travel in East London. Especially as the induced traffic will make it less likely TfL and councils will reallocate road space.

Definitely not just about leisure. Women are put off just going from A-B.

Have you seen Tony? He’s been missing for over 2 weeks. He’s a keen cyclist but doesn’t have his bike with him & may be on crutches. Key details on the poster - he’s a brilliant, friendly person & lots of us are worried about him. Please share if you can.

✨🚲 My Ride. Our Right. 🚲✨ Women cycle half as often as men, often held back by poor infrastructure, imagine if every ride felt like the image on the right. Our right. Today we launch #MyRideOurRight because safer cycling for women means safer cycling for all. Join us: cyclinguk.org/myrideourright

Disabled people across the country were already terrified of the impact Reeves's cuts will have on them - and now she's set to announce more? This is unconscionable. This government must change course immediately, and tax wealth to repair our broken economy.

Does airport expansion help the economy? Not really. Most flights are for leisure, not business... and more money is taken out of the UK through airports than comes in. Tell the government we don't want airport expansion. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

Big news on e-bikes coming at 10am…

Great progress on day three of our petition: thanks to the nearly 500 people who have signed. Can we reach the next 500? Please sign and share, and help us tell the government we don't want airport expansion: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

🗣️ "I have day-time routes and night-time routes; often on the routes at night there maybe isn't protected space for cycling and there's very high volume of cars." 📺 Kate Bartlett from our Women's Network, speaking on Politics London about the need for safer cycle routes for women & girls.
