We believe cycling should feel liberating, not intimidating. But sadly, that's not the case for everyone. Women make half as many trips by bike as men, and are more likely to be put off cycling by a fear of busy traffic.

Women shouldn't feel forced to choose between a busy road and a dark isolated path. There should be a route that feels safe and welcoming. This isn't just about transport; it's about equality, opportunity and giving more people the freedom to ride. Because when we make cycling safer for women, we make it safer for everyone.
