Unfortunately we do not hold the level of detail you require. Our record on casualties involving powered two-wheeler riders do not include where they were travelling, or for what reason.  

However, more general information about casualties involving powered two wheelers is available on our website using the following link: https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/publications-and-reports/road-safety

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.

Yours sincerely
