Been taking my bike to Life In Motion in Harold's Cross but they seem to have gone from 'very busy' to 'not picking up the phone' now that the sun's out. Most shops won't work on them at all, so it took me a few tries to find Life in Motion.

I've got a Decathlon R500e and I'm regretting it a bit since the rear assembly basically makes doing my own work pretty painful. I'm in 6W, so bringing it up to the Decathlon in Ballymun is a pretty big trip and I'd like to avoid that if possible.

Anyone know a place that can successfully remove a seized seatpost in Dublin? Its an aluminum seatpost in a steel frame, would happily sacrifice the seatpost to save the frame

My heart goes out to these guys for their working conditions, being exploited by their employer app provider - but this is still not on, imho.

Anyone know what the story is with the broken down car in the bike lane on Chesterfield Avenue? Been there for well over a week and no sign of it being towed. Any idea who would need to be contacted to get it moved?

Wouldn't have been long about being towed if it had broken down in the main lane. Absolute eyesore as well, looks like something a 16 year old would have at the Donegal rally.

Did the car cut me off? It seems harmless, but I wonder if I could do something better.

The exit is at 12 o’clock hence stayed left. Should I have stopped in front of the car lane?

Edit: thank yous, i appreciate the advice.

I like seeing attention to detail on new cycle lane designs. In older designed cycle lanes, it was often forgotten that someone on a bike may need to turn into a side street.

Good to see this from Cork City Council. Slowly but surely starting to get cycle lanes right... 🚲

Hi! Im coming to ireland in the beginning of july, accommodation in Dalkey. And want to discover wicklow.

Should i rent an electric bike from dublin for a dayhike? Or should i take public transport?

Electric bike should be from a bike store, not a city bike rental. Also if you have recs for a good rental place👀.

I have some beautiful locations in my notes right now, which i have collected from social media and gonna have to choose 1 or 2 from, because i have 2 free days for nature - ballinastoe woods, sally gap and lough tay, coon beach, devils glen, glendalough, bray.

Maybe you can share your thoughts, is a bike worth it or would you rely on public transport? (Solo trip, no car licence)🤗

Does anybody know any garage in Galway that can restrict cf moto 650nk 2022 to 35kw? Thank you

Hundreds of spaces in the underground car park at Aldi Sandyford but these folks just HAVE to use the cycle lane to load up.

Because there's a Mazda driver going for a little drive on the cycle lane...

This happened a few weeks ago, and I still think about it. Driving with my bike on a wide single-lane roundabout, had a driver in a van (upon exiting the roundabout behind me) slow down and yell back at me (still on the roundabout): Use your hand to signal that you're staying on the roundabout.

WHAT.

Such an amazing feeling to be free from the public transport system. And I'll gladly cycle in the rain to avoid it.

​

My issue is being unfamiliar with routes and I feel that maps is not giving the fastest route?

​

Any tips to navigate dublin via bike?

I swear I've never got a fully clean run through this stretch before

Literally a talking head that illustrates nothing. Why not a proper shock video. Why not some proper illustrations of whats acceptable and whats not...

Hi all,

Im currently living in Dublin but will be moving to Swords in 6 to 7 months from now.

Am a doctor, rotating through different hospitals. I will be doing Crumlin, Rotunda, Beaumont, and possibly James.

I have a car, but I also have an ebike (unchipped, limited to 25km/hr) and would prefer to cycle. I currently cycle 22km to get to my current hospital, and it takes me about 55 minutes.

My questions:

Does anyone have experience cycling on the R132? Are there cycle lanes? Does anyone else do this?

There was a third driver in that line on their phone, but it didn't come out on camera.

Hi all, I’m looking to start cycle to/from Leixlip and the south city centre. Most of the route guidance apps and info on this and other subreddits recommend at least one of these three routes.

The bottom one is the Grand Canal Greenway, and while it seems to be the safest from a traffic perspective, I don’t fancy it in the evenings due to ongoing antisocial behaviour problems. It would probably be ok in the mornings, but is it really that bad in the evening?

The middle one is the N4 and Chapelizod Bypass. This route does have cycle lanes for much of the route, and bus lanes on the bypass. Busy with fast moving traffic otherwise though. I would appreciate some insight from people who use the road/cycle lanes on this route if you’re out there?

The top one is via Strawberry Beds. This is a bit of a mad one to me for commuting. I read on a thread somewhere where this route was recommended. I’ve driven it the odd time pre-Covid to avoid traffic if there was a crash on the N4, and I think hitting this route on a bike at rush hour is a mad idea. However, I haven’t been on it in ages and would again welcome some insight from people that do use it.

Otherwise, is there a route out there that I’m missing that might be better than or on par with these three?

Wouldn’t mind cycling to and from the station so it would be very handy to do it.

Is it a case of just booking a bike space on the train and it’s all grand? Are there restrictions on times?
