Simon L3 , of Friday Night Ride to the Coast Fame, once told me that TFL wanted to increase bike use solely as a way of increasing capacity on buses and tubes. That is , if people ride bikes instead of using the Tube or the bus.
In fact, he said , TFL saw increasing bike use as the only way in the short to increase capacity in the short to medium term.
