Cycling most unhealthy form of transport.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-34455338
"I walked, cycled and drove down Brompton Road in Knightsbridge, one of the busiest and most exclusive shopping streets in London. One monitor measured PM2.5 - in a congested London street, most of this pollutant would be from vehicles, especially diesel. The other measured black carbon - the sooty emissions from diesel engines. I spent around 30 minutes on each mode of transport and the broad findings were these: for black carbon the highest level of pollution was whilst on a bike, followed by walking, with the lowest level while driving."
