RE: [ST] Riding in London

[Neil Tracey <Neil.Tracey@xxxxxxxxx>]

I live in bath and the bus lanes are for buses, taxis AND motorbikes, but
some in Bristol exclude M/bikes.
I would suggest if it does not show a picture of a bike on the bus lane
sign, then bikes are not allowed.
20 years ago I worked in Hatton garden and there was loads of parking for
bikes, but that's probably too far out of the city for you, and they have
probably been redeveloped now!
