"Have you been paying attention at all?"
Well, I flicked through my edition of London Cyclist the other day and noted all the (non-existent) highways etc and thought a double-page spread with large maps meant some kind of approval of the scheme, implicit at least.
On reflection, what I meant was that the LCC seem to want to be positive about cycling in general so aren't in a position to shout and scream about the f*cking uselessness of the present set up. (Crap Cycling in Waltham Forest also does that ably!)*
Spending tens of millions (or is it hundreds of millions?) on a scheme that does nothing for the bulk of London cyclists sticks in my throat a bit. But then I guess your average London commuter, racer, sports rider or non-Zone 1 resident is not the target audience for the hire scheme.
