My dissertation analyzes the impact of bicycle thefts on the choice of cycling as a mode of transportation among recreational cyclists. I used quantitative research methods to address two main questions: How does the experience or perception of bicycle theft influence individuals' willingness to choose bicycles as a mode of transportation? And what prevention methods are perceived by recreational cyclists as most effective in reducing bike thefts and thereby encouraging their decision to cycle? In addition to answering the main research questions, the work provides a unique profile of recreational cyclists in London
