In subsequent questioning he said something about 'if the percentages don't improve then we may have to look at it again' which Alistair Dalton of the Scotsman interpreted as them downgrading from 10% to something lower (by that time he was back on message about it being a shared vision or whatever) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13738#post-172378 Sat, 15 Nov 2014 23:08:28 +0000 sallyhinch 172378@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Thanks for the plug</p> <p>You missed</p> <p>"<br /> Sally Hinchcliffe<br /> ‏@sallyhinch<br /> Apparently we're well on the way to meeting our target of 10 percent of journeys by bike *pinch me I'm dreaming*#csconf2014 #csconf14"</p> <p> <a href="https://twitter.com/sallyhinch/status/533204517769445376" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/sallyhinch/status/533204517769445376</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13738#post-172372 Sat, 15 Nov 2014 21:45:55 +0000 chdot 172372@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>From above -</p> <p>"</p> <p>The problem with our cities isn’t just that they don’t really work for people on bikes.
