I'm not sure if you're deliberately mis-reading and mis-quoting what I wrote or you just don't understand it. Either way it makes any kind of rational debate on the subject pretty difficult. I think you appear to have a rather prejudiced and narrow view point but that is only my opinion, and I didn't come to that conclusion from just the one post...... I love a good discussion, especially with people who can offer an alternative view to mine, but there really does have to be some substance to their contribution.

There's money in charging bikes the same as cars.
