Default No Cycles Between Stations?

In message , Ryan

I have been reading the TFL website to see which tube lines I can take a
bicycle on.

I can fully understand the sections that you CANNOT use but one seems odd to
me.

You can travel with a bicycle from Edgware to Colindale and Hendon Central
to Golders Green.

Why can't I travel all the way through? Ok it is a tunnelled section but
their are NO stations in between.

Any clues??


Aye, it's the carrying of cycles though tube tunnels that is banned by
the Railway Inspectorate (or whatever they're called these days).

We have similar issues on the Picc. as we can only carry bikes from
Cockfosters to Oakwood as there is tunnel through Southgate.
