This work aims to investigate the motivations, behaviours and perceptions of people who use the bicycle to go to work in a Brazilian city. A 39-item questionnaire was designed to measure the concordance level of 502 employees concerning the items. Advertising and promotion of safety cycling; places reserved for parking the bicycle; the integration of cycling with other modes of transport; and; support and encouragement of the company where the cyclist works are relevant issues. Adverse weather conditions, security issues and the need to transport large packages and people can influence on cycling.
