They wish to sound a death Knell for cycling.

What rot

The cycle use would drop dramatically,There is not a hope in hades that
I would wear a fluoro jacket with a number, I would just never ride a
bicycle again.

And why is that? Do you like the idea of being able to get away with any
accidental damage you may cause and not be caught?

Same with mandated clothing for my motorcycle I would just have to cease
riding.

Presumably you wear a helmet

They have already knobbled cycle use with mandated helmets (which some
think good) but bicycle use dropped when it was introduced, if they
mandate fluoro jackets with numbers on the back only the yuppy lycra
crowd would still cycle.

Time will tell. Still, if every bike riding nutbag gave up in protest I
couldn't be happier
