Abstract

Chapter 7 looks at London's 'cycling revolution,' highlighting how London's cycling paradigm reflects an implicit androcentric bias in the design, delivery and discourses of cycling infrastructure in the city. London's cycling interventions raise the profile of already visible privileged cyclists (white middle-class men) for whom cycling is a lifestyle choice while erasing 'invisible cyclists' for whom cycling is an economic necessity.
