Come on Bicycle NSW! Why are you giving tacit support to ludicrous suggestions about bicycle registration?
Leader Newspapers finds another non-story on cycling, this time in Preston.
The suggestion by London’s Mayor that bikes should be registered and display number plates is an utterly ridiculous idea. It would be too costly, unenforceable, and detrimental to the broader social benefits of cycling. Let’s hope this one goes the way of most politicians’ promises.
A member of the UK House of Lords is promoting the idea of registration and number plates for bikes. This idea is so dumb it’s hardly worth reponding to – but (sigh) here we go again.
