QuoteJeremy has never been renowned for his love of cyclists and in our recent chat with him, he had plenty to say about them. Ferociously expensive cycle lanes, sweaty armpits and even their impact on the environment – it's fair to say he didn't hold back.

"I learned today:
1. Cyclists bad
2. Trees good
3. Mayor can f**k off"

With all these lawyers with cameras on the street i'm shocked we have so much crime in the world.

There is constitutional law and there is law and order. This challenge to law and order is always the start to loosing our constitutional rights.

Frauditors are a waste of life.

He's absolutely right. London is an ancient city built up around ancient roadways. There is no room to expand so the roads are already too small to accommodate modern traffic. The bike lanes make it even more narrow and creates massive congestion which results is petrol driven vehicles sitting in traffic idling. There aren't enough bicyclists to justify the lanes. Yes it is quicker to get around London on a bike but no one wants to do that. Why would you?

You would think biking is good, I guess only in theory. In my city bikes take up the roads since it is now illegal's to bike on the sidewalk. They are stuck between a rock and a hard place with it. The city could give a shit either. I think an average of eight people get hit per month. It costs more to the environment to accommodate your point Boo that it does become a waist.
