London Cycle Link is a volunteer-driven charitable organization that advocates on behalf of all Londoners to make London a safe and healthy, cycle-friendly city. Our motto is "Ride more" and our vision is for London to choose cycling. Partnering with local businesses, community groups, fellow charity and non-profit organizations, and city hall, London Cycle Link campaigns for better bike lanes and
roads, promotes cycling safety to both motorists and cyclists, teaches cycling skills to kids through Ride to Thrive, facilitates do-it-together bicycle repair at Squeaky Wheel Bike Co-op, and organizes events and projects for a thriving cycling culture. Our values:
EQUITY: We believe cycling should be a viable option for everyone. We welcome all people in our programs, events, and outreach, and we strive to ensure that everybody has access to a working bicycle. We seek to build a supportive, encouraging community of people on bikes, and a unified voice for safer streets and paths. EMPOWERMENT: We help people understand how things work—from the gears on a bicycle, to cycling laws, to City Hall—in order to enable individual and community advocacy, and to support transportation autonomy through cycling. SUSTAINABILITY: Our Earth is in crisis and we need urgent action to prevent climate catastrophe and prepare for a resilient future. Cycling can be a significant part of the solution. We strive to consider environmental and ecological justice in all our decisions. FUN & CELEBRATION: Whether it’s riding downhill, unexpectedly crossing paths with a friend (or a goose), or trying a new bike path for the first time, cycling often makes us smile. We try to infuse a spirit of fun, the unexpected, or the whimsical in what we do. To hear about news, events and issues related to cycling in London, subscribe to our newsletter, Chain Mail.
