Whatever. I still said it.

You did, and you were wrong.

15% of full driving licence holders cycle more than twice a month; 18% cycle once a year to twice a month - http://www.cyclinguk.org/resources/...cs#How many people don't cycle much, if ever?

I know atheists who are in church choirs because they like singing. I'm not sure what conclusion we can draw re: preaching to choirs

Well the thread was worth starting just for the above sentence to surface.

And I still said it. It was regurgitating one of British Cycling recent sound bites, and it's a diffent stat to yours.

I made mention of the number of cyclists who have drivers licences, not the number of car divers who ride a bike, which is that to which you allude - these are two different things entirely. Pay attention.

Meanwhile, maybe you can present your evidence to prove that the small minority of twothead drivers would take any notice of anything cyclists had to say?

Was the nonsequitur bit also a quote from BC, or did you add it ?

British Cycling, gawd luv 'em, reckon something like 80% of cyclists have a drivers licence, so most drivers already know these things.

Why are you asking me to prove an argument I haven't advanced?
