An exhibition as part of the London Bicycle Film Festival, to accompany a multi stakeholder seminar aimed at disseminating Bikeoff project outputs and designing out bike theft. The exhibition launched a free online design resource (via Bikeoff.org) featuring over a hundred case studies of cycling facilities and schemes from around the world, aimed at helping a multi stakeholder audience, including designers and architects, to “get smart quick” about bike theft and how to design secure cycling infrastructure for our cities.
