How about you?

I don't walk very well but I don't usually have a problem cycling.
In fact cycling is usually more comfortable than driving (or just
sitting in one position for long).

You can't make laws which apply so adversely to the general because of
the views (or needs) abberrant particular.

Allowing cycling on railway platforms is an idea which could only occur
(as a runner) to the insane. It would undoubtedly cause many deaths of
innocent pedestrian railway-users. That - I have no doubt - is why it is
banned. It's as plain as the nose on your face.

I can guess what's coming next - so please don't bother to try to
instance a case of a disabled cyclist who finds it difficult to walk and
whose nose was lost in a horrific attack by a Rottweiller.
