Matt Hancock doubling down on the get out and do some exercise line on question time last night to together with confirming getting into car to drive a short distance to walk the dog also fine.
This idea that there are billions of cyclist taking the piss is just bazaar, cyclists make up 2% of road users and outside of London and figure will be even less than that. If more draconian measures do come in it'll have nothing to do with the 1% of 1% of cyclists who are riding for more than a hour, not that an time limit has been put on it.

Totally agree that it makes no sense but the numbers dont portray the perception that the police currently have.
If you are a policeman and talk to a dozen cyclists a day and you start to notice that a quarter of those people are a long way from home, then thats the impression that you get.

I agree. Cyclists are easily identifiable therefore drivers and cyclists will be the scapegoats. The tiny minority of people not doing what they should be doing will ruin it for those who were.
