I unsuccessfully argued a similar case with my organisation, which pays bicycle mileage at a mere 10 pence per mile, and only if agreed in advance with line management.
I argued that not all fuel was petrol or diesel and 4 miles on a bike, pedalling at a moderate pace, may 'cost' me up to 250 calories, for which surely the organisation should reimburse me.
The cost of motoring is going up but so is a cyclist's food bill!
