• I wrote "more people riding bikes is good" because I believe that an anti-cycling-infrastructure policy prevents more people from riding bikes, not to be patronising

    Fine, but I'll just point out that in Hackney this apparent "policy" has, er, presided over an increase in cycling. And "Hackney POB" is kind of a one-issue group, no?

    I have less issue with your general observations about cycling levels around the world, even if I disagree with the inferences drawn in some of them. What I cannot agree with is the original start point of the discussion in attacking the "policy" of one very successful, and reasonable, and innovative group. And I don't care that you claim to be attacking one element of their "policy"; it's such a central element for one thing, and secondly "Hackney POB's" hysterical stuff about quitting HCC or people being turned off from joining is crudely divisive to say the least.
