This week on Business Scotland Colin Blane checks out the business
behind one of the most remarkable inventions of the industrial age ..
the humble bicycle. Over the years, cycle sales have been through some
ups and downs but for the last decade or so the push-bike has been
pushing ahead again. A recent report suggested cycle use in Scotland was
up 32 percent since 2003. Colin talks to a number of people who've
saddled up to take advantage of the surge in cycling.


Scotland currently has a cycling mode share — the proportion of journeys
made by bike — of just one percent, a figure that hasn't budged since
the 1980s.

A 32% increase on 1 is 1.32.

Ha ha ha ha ha!
