After some <a href="http://bendigo.yourguide.com.au/news/local/general/vllines-bike-ban-makes-no-sense/1154312.html" rel="nofollow">further reading</a>, it seems that a considerable number of carriage already have designated bike storage areas, so these spaces are wasted during peak hours, and that it was indeed because of too many cyclists are using the service that the ban is introduced. All of a sudden I'm getting inspirations about how to solve traffic congestion during peak hours.. It's also rather discouraging to see that the principle cycling advocacy body of Victorica - Bicycle Victoria is actually <a href="http://www.bv.com.au/bikes-and-riding/41038/" rel="nofollow">supporting the move</a>.

Perhaps a no-seat car with lots of overhead straps specifically for bikommuters.
