Elly Blue recently wrote a book called Bikenomics that touches on some of this. She has and does also write a ton of other stuff about the ways feminism and bikes interact. I reached out to her just now and she also recommended Adonia Lugo's new book, Bicycle/Race.

Hello everyone! We have been doing some research on non-academic and academic literature on how there are different types on mobility inside cities and those differences are also, or should be, gendered (not into the idea of the binomial definition of gender but the majority of info we have found approaches that way) ans also on how perceptions/infrastructure mold the mobility patrons on women and men*. Not so surprising we have found the bast majority of urban plans, bike lanes and even bike "activism" all around the globe keeps repeating the no consideration/misogynist way to do-it, the no consideration on reproductive work (that not only women do, but in bast majority the do). Sooooo, I write this email for 2 reasons: 1-Ask, if you have any, for literature that approaches mobility with a "gender perspective" that can or cannot include this on the text but, you know that doesn't keep talking of men as the norm when creating new bus lanes or bike lanes etc. 2- If anyone wants to open a support/study/awesome group to discuss this things (will be awesome), let me know!
Thanks And hopefully I will see a bunch of you in LA Abrazos R.
