If it is agreed that cycling is a 'good thing' health wise, congestion wise etc etc etc, and the C2W scheme is 'abused' by many - and this abuse is tacitally approved by HMG, presumably because of these positive effects, why not abandon the scheme and encourage everyone to benefit by cutting or even removing VAT on bikes?
Because government prefers to take it off you, use a chunk of that money to create more bureaucracy and give you part of it back!
