The Transgender Equality Network Ireland (TENI) has said it is dismayed by the ruling in the UK, but encouraged by the fact that this narrative has not made its way to Ireland www.rte.ie/news/ireland...

We've come a long way in the last four years but this still falls far short of the €360m p/a that was promised back in 2020 which was supposed to represent 20% of the annual transport capital budget. Our guess is active travel got less than 10% of the budget over that period. #Allocate4Cycling

Wouldn’t #RSA be better off reminding drivers about the #fatal5 at petrol pumps rather than advising about e-scooter laws?

If anyone would like one of those stylish t-shirts that you saw at yesterday's Strand Road cycle you can get them at ibike.ie - including children's sizes. If we manage to sell enough of them we might also be able to add hoodies to our stock.

These speed activated traffic lights have been in operation in Portugal since at least 2007. Why are they not widely deployed in Ireland with camera detection for anybody that breaks the red? The Gardai can never be everywhere - these can. -> ideas.4brad.com/portugals-ve...

Over 100 people cycled from the city centre along Strand Road and back this evening seeking a cycle path to be trialled on Strand Road after the Court of Appeal earlier today cleared all legal obstacles for that to happen:

We're obviously delighted with the decision by the Court of Appeal today but it's frustrating that it has taken four years for the courts to see that this was a vexatious case taken by a serial objector with an irrational hatred for all things cycling. irishcycle.com/2025/04/11/g...

This was a mostly avoidable death. 1. The road design is a race track. 2. He could have been put off the road previously if we were serious about road safety when it comes to speeding, drug use and tinted windows. This family could have been saved from such heartbreak.
