I don't think I have ever seen single file cars through there.
anyway to answer your question, no I don't think it is - it's total casualties I think, based on incidents reported to police - cyclists around 2484 and 6,484 for motorcycles. Page 7.
It doesn't have figures for number of cycles registered obviously because they aren't. but it does have figures from traffic surveys and suggests that nationally 4600 million vehicle kilometres are travelled by bike and 5200 million vehicle kilometres by motorbike. - cars and taxis are 4,024. London must surely skew that in favour of 2 wheelers by a massive amount though.
There are loads of raw tables of stats in there, so maybe someone else could find what I couldn't
For example someone asked specifically about London figures:
Cyclists Killed or Seriously Injured :392 (so included in the previous stats I quoted)
Motorcyclists:849
