Well, the report is obviously very poor and full of ignorant prejudice, but firstly those tracks are very poor in quality, and secondly when this sort of rearguard action appears, it's not necessarily a bad thing that underlies it--it may just mean that cycling is getting more popular and it looks as if this part of town features a good few affluent citizens. Of course, if they were trigger-happy with the legislation, that would be a bad thing, but their first task is of course to reduce existing legislation. It'll be an interesting one to watch.
