Previous research on travel behavior has concentrated on the behavior of traveling by cars, especially by private vehicles, while the research on cycling has focused on cycling infrastructure, the built environment, and the natural environment. Furthermore, the studies conducted during pandemics are mostly based on behavioral changes in motorized transportation. The present research tries to identify and evaluate the variables influencing cyclist behavior during covid-19 pandemic. In this research, the sample size retrieved from a survey of 375 participants was checked with Cronbach's alpha standard and estimated using confirmatory factor analysis. Results show that the variables related to health protocols can greatly impact knowing the behavior of cyclists in the time of Covid-19. Furthermore, the results show that the health issues of shared bikes can be an obstacle for people to use them more.
