European Cyclists ' Federation ( ECF ) is an umbrella federation for national cycling organizations ( organizations which promote bike for urban mobility ) throughout Europe.

In response to the growing demand from cities for expertise in cycling, ECF has decided to hold an annual Velo-city conference as of 2010.

In this framework, ECF met European Commission Vice president and Transport Commissioner Jacques Barrot during the European Road Safety Day 2007 ; ECF has also published a statement on the proposed Action Plan on Urban Mobility under the header: “ Livable cities are cycling cities ”, participated at public hearings and conferences.
