German News: A Berlin Researcher is Demanding a Ban on Bikes in Trains, Characterizes Cyclists as "Especially Aggressive"
This guy is being criticized and even I have to wonder if he's working for a car lobby. Basically, this answers the questions people had about the attitudes in Germany towards bikes and bicyclists. He's claiming cyclists are especially aggressive, there's no place in the trains, this causes delays, and he wants a ban in summer months when people take the bikes on the train to get to their touring destinations.
This would be his solution instead of discussing the pitiful train capacity by Deutsche Bahn which people will immediately know about in the Alpine regions or give a reservation system and not demand DB increase capacity. Also, he's claiming the bikes cause delays, but the fact is Deutsche Bahn is so dysfunctional that it doesn't need a cyclist to do that.
