Whatever your views on where the balance should be struck between
the rights of cyclist passengers and the rights of pedestrian
passengers, you *can* see why bikes (and, if appropriate, unicycles)
are banned on the Underground?

Er, except they aren't.

They are.
Not *completely banned*, but there is a partial ban which is complained of
in this thread.

But *bikes* aren't banned, *non-folding* bikes are banned on *some*
lines and permitted on others some or all of the time.

Non-folding bikes are banned on deep lines,
and from subsurface lines at some times of day, folding bikes are not
restricted and there is no evidence of any restriction on unicycles.

Except for what the (assumed) LU employee said.

You think an unnamed London Underground employee is better informed
than TfL's printed conditions of carriage? It could happen, I
suppose...
