The demonstration outside the TfL offices in Southwark saw riders lying with their bikes across Blackfriars Road while others held candles.
The 15-minute "die in" was part of the Stop Killing Cyclists protest which comes after six cyclists were killed in the capital this month.
Donnachadh McCarthy, one of the organisers, said the plan was inspired by people in Holland who use a similar tactic to call for improvements to road safety.

We have brought the battle to TfL's headquarters because these are the people making the decisions. We want representations and we want real funding

He said: "We are here because Londoners are fed up of being killed. We need to have modern, European, safe cycling network. We believe it's a human right for children and pensioners to cycle around our city safely, and at the moment they can't.
"We have brought the battle to TfL's headquarters because these are the people making the decisions. We want representations and we want real funding. We want £600 million a year spent on safer cycling in London.
"We believe that we need a separate, segregated modern cycle network that is at least two metres wide. We can do that in London, there is plenty of space to do it."
In the space of two weeks six cyclists were killed while riding in London earlier this month.
Brian Holt, 62, Francis Golding, 69, Roger William De Klerk, 43, Venera Minakhmetova, 24, a 21-year-old man from St John's Wood and a man believed to be in his 60s all died between November 5 and 18.

TfL Surface Transport's managing director Leon Daniels said segregated cycle routes, which is a key protestor demand, would be adopted within 10 years.
He said: "Delivering such major improvements will take time, but we are working flat-out to do so. We and the mayor have set out our plans and the first major improvements, such as the segregated extension of the Superhighway to Stratford, are now being seen.
"Over the forthcoming weeks and months Londoners will see many more improvements as the investment we are making bears fruit."
The protest comes after a police operation which saw hundreds of officers positioned at busy junctions across London during morning and evening rush hour.
Operation Safeway deployed 650 officers to 60 junctions on Monday, with cyclists who breach the highway code the focus of the initiative.
