overview of cycling in London, England

Cycling in London is a good way to travel around the capital - for business and pleasure. There is excellent cycling infrastructure in some central areas of the capital, but provision can vary from borough to borough. London has several cycle hire schemes, which you can use on an ad hoc basis using a bank card or app. Public cycle parking is usually free of charge. On the banks of the River Thames, most of central London is flat, but there are hilly areas to the north and south of the city.

Understand edit

James Starley (1830-1881) is sometimes the "father of the bicycle industry". The engineer once lived in London, before he moved to Coventry and named his first bicycle after the West Midlands city in the 1860s. There were bicycles in circulation beforehand throughout western Europe, including the velocipede.

The bicycle worked its way into London's popular culture. British composer Harry Dacre composed "Daisy Bell (Bicycle Built for Two)" in 1892, which became a success in London's music hall scene in a performance by Katie Lawrence.

Daisy, Daisy,

Give me your answer, do!

I'm half crazy,

All for the love of you.

It won't be a stylish marriage,

I can't afford a carriage,

But you'll look sweet upon the seat

Of a bicycle built for two.

Pink Floyd's 1967 album The Piper at the Gates of Dawn features the song "Bike". Queen's 1978 hit "Bicycle Race" was inspired by the 1978 Tour de France. Pink Floyd and Queen both formed in London during the 1960s.

Cycling featured in all three Summer Olympics held in London - in 1908, 1948 and 2012.

London hosted the Grand Départ for the 2007 Tour de France, which was ultimately won by Spanish rider Alberto Contador. The 2014 Tour de France began in Leeds, Yorkshire. Stage 3, which began in Cambridge, ended in London. German rider Marcel Kittel took the yellow jersey after the race's final England leg before he ultimately won the 21-stage event.

Cycling fell into decline in London in the 1950s.

More than 800,000 journeys a day were made by bike in London in 2022, according to the Evening Standard.

Etiquette edit

Cyclists must abide by The Highway Codeː

  • You must use lights at night. By law, your bike must be fitted with white front and red rear lights. You can be fined for not using lights at night.
  • You must stop at red traffic lights. By law, you must obey all signs and signals. Some locals and tourists choose to ignore red traffic lights, but you can be fined for breezing through.
  • You must not cycle on pavements unless they are marked for cyclists' use using blue signs bearing a bicycle or similar icon  . You must give way to pedestrians at zebra crossings.
  • Cyclists must not ride on motorways or routes marked by a circular white sign with a red border, bearing a bicycle icon  
  • Cycle on the left in the UK and allow other cyclists to overtake where possible.
  • Use arm signals to indicate your direction. Make sure you are aware of your surroundings before turning at junctions.
  • You may use cycle lanes where they are available, but they may not be suitable for faster riders, who might find it easier to use the main carriageway.
  • You may cycle two abreast on London's roads.

Local authorities edit

Cycle routes are maintained by several local authorities, including London's 32 borough councils and the City of London Corporation.

Cycleways (C1, C2, C3...) are maintained by Transport for London (TfL). TfL is also responsible for some routes on major A roads, such next to the A406 North Circular Road. You can report problems on the network to TfL using its Streetcare tool: https://streetcare.tfl.gov.uk/

The Royal Parks is responsible for cycleways in some of London's green spaces, including Hyde Park, Green Park, The Regent's Park, Greenwich Park and Richmond Park.

Charities and campaigns edit

There are several organisations and campaign groups in London, some of which produce maps for and guides to cycling and wheeling in the capital:

Critical Mass London takes place at 7.30pm on the last Friday of each month, starting at the National Theatre near the South Bank. The direct action campaign began in 1992 in San Francisco, in the United States. It is a decentralised ride, so the route is decided spontaneously month-to-month.

Cycling For All was set up to provide cycling opportunities for people in London with disabilities and health conditions.

Cycling UK runs campaigns under the "Transforming our Streets", "Off-road Access for Cycling" and "Less Traffic, More Cycling" banners.

London Cycling Campaign lobbies local authorities, Parliament and private companies to make cycling safer in the capital. As well as localised campaigns at a borough level, LCC runs campaigns such as "Climate Safe Streets", "End Lorry Danger" and "Women's Freedom".

Sustrans looks after the National Cycle Network, including routes in London. The national charity works with policy makers to develop cycling and wheeling networks throughout the country.

Wheels for Wellbeing sets up cycling and wheeling opportunities for mobility impaired people. Its website features a resources page.

Cycleways edit

There are a network of cycleways throughout London. Look out for cycle signs:

  - route on the National Cycle Network. Each route has a number (1, 4, 6...) which will appear in a red box.

  - route for pedal cycles only. You should not encounter pedestrians or motor traffic on routes marked using this sign.

  - route for pedal cycles and pedestrians only. You will have to share the route with pedestrians, but you should not encounter motor traffic on routes marked with this sign.

  - separated track and path for pedal cycles and pedestrians. You should stay on your side of the path but be aware there may be pedestrians in your way. You should not encounter motor traffic on routes marked with this sign.

  - on-road cycle route begins. You may encounter parked cars or bus stops on your route, and motor vehicles will pass nearby, usually to your right.

  - cycling is prohibited. You should dismount and push your bike or seek an alternative route.

TfL's Cycleways typically follow on-road cycle lanes or quieter streets. They are typically designed for commuters but many pass major London attractions including Buckingham Palace, Elizabeth Tower (Big Ben) and the Houses of Parliament, The Tower of London and the Tate Modern. They are all signposted, but it can be easy to lose track with gaps in the signage network. TfL has a Cycleways map online: https://tfl.gov.uk/maps/cycle
