I should think you're stoned already, and most of the time.

Why don't you like Boris? He's a cyclist isn't he, whereas Livingstone wasn't? He's done more for cyclists in his first year in charge than Livingstone ever did, hasn't he? So why do you prefer Livingstone? Is it because Livingstone hated motorists, and this was reflected in his policies, whereas Boris doesn't mind motorists and is now undoing Livingstone's car-hating measures?

If so, doesn't that make you a car-hater rather than a cycling advocate? And if that's the case, why do you pretend to be a cycling advocate and claim not to be anti-motorist? Is it because you know that if you admitted to being anti-motorist, people would despise you? Doesn't that tell you something? (Oh, and people still despise you anyway...could it be that the "disguise" isn't working, and everyone knows perfectly well that you're simply anti-motorist and not a cycling advocate at all?)
