Yeah I also found that very odd. Officers kitted out with riot helmets pushing bike cops into protestors. Even if they had all been riot police, it seems like a terrible, half-hearted tactic?

I'd guess the bike cops are there because they can hold bikes in front of them, which makes it just that little bit harder to advance over them?
