At the end of last tax year I was asked to sign a statement declaring that I had used my cycle to work scheme bike for more than 50% of my commuting miles. Failure to do this would render me liable for the tax saved under the scheme.
If you sold the bike and the tax man asked for such a statement from you then you could always lie. There is only a small chance that you would be found out. But: tax evasion is serous shit, it's something that will prompt them to go for the throat in a big way. You can bugger an MP and get less time inside. So think carefully.
