early a thousand women joined a ride around central London for London Cycling Campaign’s (LCC) annual Women’s Freedom Ride last
month, calling on the Mayor, Metropolitan Police and London councils to make cycling safe for women in London.
The event began with the handover of a petition of more than 5,000 signatures to the Mayor’s walking and cycling commissioner, Will Norman.
Nine out of 10 women in London who cycle have experienced abuse or aggression.
