clive, agree with pretty much most of bagheera's post, lots of elegant solutions to getting round people's reluctance, I was going to say a big plus one on the company brompton idea. have a couple or more solely for business use, start to faze out taxi allowances and have staff ride to meetings outside of the office.
The first thing is to overcome people's reluctance to ride, and the usually unwarranted fear that it is too dangerous, exposing staff to easy cycling of the brompton/boris bike variety can be used as a gateway to more vigorous and long term cycling..
hope this goes well, more people/firms/businesses should be going down this route...
I salute you..
