Someone should ask the guy that said he pays taxes to use the roads what he thinks his taxes go on and why he is paying more and more tax every year as well as congestion charges in the city. He probably thinks that all the money goes on re surfacing the roads so he can drive his Chelsea tractor along with out hitting a dent in the road causing him to drop his mobile. Cyclists have little or no effect on damage to the roads and has he missed the fact that the city that was designed and built around the use of horses, cart and single decker trains which don't congest the city or produce harmful green house gasses. Obviously there is a need for cars all the time in the city but people should realise how much nicer the city would be if 10 per cent of the people needlessly driving cars through the city took to a bike or even public transport. This would also reduce road tax cost and congestion charges. And after a couple of weeks of cycling, this idiot might be able to see his penis without a mirror as well!
I drive a car and I cycle. Never drive in the city though, I don’t have the patience.
