I got this cycling thing all wrong. Somehow I foolishly thought that the government and the BMA and everyone else who has been talking up the idea of cycling were thinking in terms of public transport. Silly, silly me. It now seems that cycling is an activity with a number of purposes, but none of them are related to using bikes to get somewhere.
