I do not own a car, and my main form of travel to Westminster and in my constituency is by bicycle. I also take my bike on trains to meetings in other parts of the country, which enables me to see other cities and the other parts of the country.
A bike is the world's most used form of transportation
I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel.
I used to walk down a street and nobody would notice me. Now, I get stopped all the time; people saying, 'well done'. It makes me really, really proud to have done my bit to help make cycling a little bit more popular.
I want to tell the world of cycling to please join me in telling Pat McQuaid to resign. I have never seen such an abuse of power in cycling's history - resign, Pat, if you love cycling. Resign even if you hate the sport.
I used a bike in London and that's it. I learnt a lot about biking, and really got into. Now I cycle regularly.
A protected bicycle lane in the city in a developing country is a powerful symbol, showing that a citizen on the $30 bicycle is as important as one in a $30,000 car
It's really important for cycling and for women to be on a sporting stage which is in the mainstream and across the board, not just my own sport.
Of course you want a better culture of cycling in the U.K. Better roads. More respect.
People across America who value bicycling should have a voice when it comes to transportation planning. This is the end of favoring motorized transportation at the expense of non-motorized.
I do want to be a spokesman for clean cycling - I believe somebody has to stand up for the current generation. I'm happy to do that.
Cycling as a whole is totally underestimated.
Riding a bicycle is the summit of human endeavour - an almost neutral environmental effect coupled with the ability to travel substantial distances without disturbing anybody. The bike is the perfect marriage of technology and human energy.
