This is true. Except that I also mentioned that I have seen a substantial increase in cycling where I work, which is not in the city. Well, ok, I hadn't mentioned that I didn't work in the city. In fact I work in the West End of London and I've seen a vast increase in cyclists coming in from the suburbs during my years of cycle commuting.
I'm curious. It sounds like you don't want to believe what we're telling you? Or is it just that you want hard figures? I presume if you do a search you'll be able to find some figures.
Here is one such example. Inevitably the stats tend to concentrate on London as it's our biggest city, but I suspect it is also a trend-setter.
