Thanks Ray, guessed around there from the pictures but woah betide me if I bring the 3 tiny kids to the wrong spot by accident!

I suspect not Shane, there’s a good few rowing clubs with riverbank access that I think would be in the way unless you walk beside the road. Don’t know the exact location of the new bridge though!?

Oh!! Where exactly is it, down by the river / running club near the church?

I have my husband’s so I can check how close to home he is when cycling home and I’m trying to plan when dinner can be ready. Rarely check it but useful if he didn’t text before starting the trip. And we’re not in a weird one sided relationship, he does the same when I’m in the office!

Anyone know if there’s secure bike parking in Dundrum shopping centre?

Would rather cycle than drive but always scared my electric bike will get robbed! @dlrcycling.bsky.social you might know? Or @oisinoconnor.bsky.social thanks!

She worked the day 8am to 9pm without a break because technically each “job” was less than 4 hours so no break needed. I tried my best to give her food while here. The lack of care for staff in the design of home care is infuriating.

I’ve spent this last week looking after my mum with dementia, with help from 4 wonderful home care staff. But the system they work in is so messed up. They don’t get paid travel time, or even given time to travel - one jogged a 25 walk in 10 mins to reach us.

Not all that glitters is gold??

Taking up an ecar space and not charging their car.

I was there when the Garda returned, not an emergency situation at all, strolling around so he was.

@garda.ie please do better.

Just a hawk casually eating dinner on my parents’ back garden wall.

I feel like the classification “doing a bad job” is a compliment at this stage. It implies they’re actually doing the job in some way…

It had an odd phase around 2000 of being the place to go for teenage girl birthday parties. Pizza was suddenly a thing and they served alcohol without ID. I was there a few times.

Give them a free electric cargo bike instead.

Thanks so much for the recommendation. Managed to get there today and I have 2 delighted kids with their new bikes and a delighted mammy who feels like they’re the right fit for them! And I didn’t have to rob a bank!

I was advised by my driving instructor to book the last test of the day, most chance of traffic so you’ll go a shorter route to avoid risk of getting stuck and the instructor finishing work late. Best day is a Friday. In case you haven’t booked yet, it worked for me!

Thanks, I’m actually suspicious my older fella will need 16 inch, he’s fierce tall, but would love expert advice, so wasn’t thinking adverts. But recycle bikes looks like a great shout, thanks!

Suggestions on first bikes for a 4 & 5 year old?

Or good Dublin based shops to try some out and get expert, friendly, patient advice?

I’m in.

That would be amazing. Imagine continued right out so Palmerstown and Lucan wouldn’t need to be split down the middle anymore.

If your green bike’s back wheel/mudguard got damaged yesterday at Sandycove beach that mini is the car that did it. Ignored my request to leave you a note. Sorry I couldn’t do more, 3 tiny kids to contain and get into our own bike amidst the chaos. Repost please @dlrcycling.bsky.social

Have a look at the work TACSI have done, guessing something there would be relevant.

This is lovely

Yellow would be fab!

Putting something up on a Facebook freecycle page and a staunch anti-cyclist wanting it, and there not being a first-come first-served policy. 😃

Wish I could have specified the item was collected by bike just to rub it in. But it was a bed.

Looks exactly like the Fatsia in my garden, reckon the iPhone is right!

I sometimes park my cargo bike in a car spot outside my house when I’m just popping in for a few mins. Cars do not like it. I find it hilarious.

I know, was there this morning! Nice to see a place so lovingly designed on that street too. I’m actually relieved at the price or I’d be visiting too frequently! 😋

Yum but some price!!

Yes! I practically crawled down the hill I normally fly down gleefully.

Didn’t help that I left my helmet in the cargo bike so felt naked too!!

Anyone recommend good free/cheap Figma online tutorials?

Don’t need to become an expert, just able to jump into someone else’s files, not mess them up tragically, make simple edits to play with ideas, add connects etc?
