Help, WWI unit ID from shoulder title

[Tony]

Can anyone help me out with the unit ID of this soldier?

He?s a territorial I think as the letter above the unit name is a T. Being a territorial, I?m hoping the photo was taken locally so, could be (hoping) a south east London unit.

Thanks for any help and I?m sorry the shoulder title isn?t clearer, we?ll blame the photographer for that.

Kev,

I see what you mean but I want it to be a SE London unit, so humour or lie to me and suggest it could be T 22 London.

Cheers

Definately T/CYCLIST and the 'T' used is a greatcoat one at that, which are usually found being worn by second & third line units, later in the war.

Graham and Kev,

Thanks for that, I wonder if he was in the City of London Cyclist Company. He could also have been from somewhere else in the country and only billited in London. It's really annoying when they don't write their name rank and number on photos.
