This document summarizes a PhD presentation about analyzing data from the 2011 UK Census to understand city cycling. It discusses how the Census provides data on transportation mode share and commute distances that can be analyzed by demographics. It also examines how women are underrepresented in cycling currently in the UK and looks at studies showing that women cycle more in cities like Amsterdam and Copenhagen that have built cycling infrastructure tailored to all users by prioritizing safety, convenience and family trips. The presentation considers how analyzing Census data can provide insights for improving cycling policies and infrastructure to encourage more diverse participation.
