We are a membership organisation, with an aim to bring together the cycling community, groups and individuals. We have quarterly members meetings in the city centre, an online discussion forum and a monthly newsletter.   We strongly believe that if more of us switched to the bike for shorter journeys, we could easily create safer, more sociable, livable neighbourhoods and communities, a more attractive, viable city centre and healthier, happier people.   To make this positive transition, we are lobbying for improved cycle infrastructure and a better understanding and respect between all users of the road, street and public space environment.   We are keen to hear from other organisations who have an interest in transport and accessibility, social equality, wellbeing and health of people and their communities.   Prof Stephen Singleton, patron   "Countries that have promoted and provided for cyclists have less obesity than car centric countries like Britain. But the benefits of encouraging cycling are not just better health but a better urban environment."   You can read more about us by clicking on the menu over on the left.
