More bicycles on our roads

In 2014 more bicycles (95,000) were sold in Ireland than cars (91,732).

Well done to the Fianna Fáil Green coalition that introduced the Bike 2 Work scheme.

The scheme allows PAYE employees to get up to 50 per cent rebate on purchase of a bicycle.

Such a shame that the scheme doesn't actually require that bicycle to be for an adult and suitable for travelling to work. Far too many use it for buying bikes for their kids.
