A High Five to all the Fitzrovia businesses that helped support the 2015 London Cycle Challenge, which ran from 8 – 28 June.

During the three-week Challenge period in London:

• 404 organisations registered
• 5,482 people signed up
• 34,548 trips were made
• 413,568 miles cycled
• 394 new riders were encouraged to experience first-hand how easy and enjoyable riding a bike can be.

The Challenge aimed to encourage more Londoners to cycle, no matter their cycling ability, to influence keen cyclists to encourage new cyclists to try cycling.

Over the next 3 months, tfl will be capturing the cycling behaviour of people who took part, to see the level of behaviour change that has been influenced by the Challenge. Participants will receive a three-week and three-month post-Challenge survey to complete and then will be sharing the results.
