A few weeks ago, we showed what we didn’t like seeing in Dublin’s bike lanes. Now we’re in Limerick, where the bike lane has been upgraded from pit stop to full parking facility 😢 #activetravel #limerickbybike #bikelanes #limerick

New team members join the ISCycle team. Read more at www.iscycle.ie/news#h.96lb2...

Some members of the team are currently in Warsaw to deliver the first workshop of the Erasmus+ KA2 project JustMOBI. We like the pedestrian and bike bridge over the Vistula River connecting the city centre with Praga Północ.

Fuel shortage ⛽️ Fuel prices through the roof 📈 Protests blocking the motorway 🚧 Driving becoming increasingly unsustainable 🚗💸. And still… traffic everywhere 🚗🚗🚗 Meanwhile, we’re just cycling through it 🚲💨 Limerick, it’s not subtle anymore 👀 #fuelprice #fuelshortage #gasprices #activetravel #ireland

Read more about our field testing session at the Limerick Greenway www.iscycle.ie/news#h.jh3tg...

At ISCycle, we’re definitely the bike-brain type.

Today we carried out field testing at the Limerick Greenway using a range of ebikes (2wheel ebikes, trikes, and a duo bike) to assess their suitability based on mobility needs identified in earlier focus group findings with older adults and parents. 🚲⚡🔋👵👴👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 We’re keeping the work moving forward! 🚲⚡😊

I enjoy this a lot, but in our @iscycle.bsky.social research, we've really found that bakfiets are not for everyone, especially if you are shorter or less confident, and they're not as good for taking a second adult as a longtail

E-Bikes are cheaper to charge than you think. Click this link to find out how much 🧐 www.iscycle.ie/news#h.jh3tg...

Things we don’t like 🚲📊 Short field observation in Dublin (20 minutes): 5 cars parked in the bike lane→ 1 obstruction every 4 minutes Interpretation: The bike lane functions as parking when convenient Implication: Cycling infrastructure exists, but access is conditional

With these crazy fuel prices... the solution is simple 🚲 #iscycle #activetravel #bikecommuter #fuelprice

Cities don’t fail women by accident, they're designed that way. And unless we plan mobility through an intersectional lens, we’ll keep reproducing the same inequities. @eiturbanmobility.eu teaches a more inclusive approach to mobility planning combining heart, head, and hand. READ: bit.ly/4bqXBYY

The National Transport Authority has released the Walking and Cycling Index 2025 today. The latest survey findings show that walking, cycling, and wheeling in the Limerick Metropolitan Area take up to 33,000 cars off the road each day. www.iscycle.ie/news#h.jh3tg...

I wrote this piece for the @urbancyclinginstitute.org, reflecting on why we ride (beyond commuting or fitness) and how cycling connects to joy, community, and equality. A simple bike can help shape more inclusive, livable cities. 🚲 urbancyclinginstitute.substack.com/p/why-i-ride...

When carrying a foldable bike… on a cargo bike. It’s bike-ception: when one bike isn’t enough, so you bring a backup just in case! 🚲📦🚲 #activetravel

Last week @annabarrero.bsky.social presented preliminary results at the @hri-ul.bsky.social Hub event on campus. We also welcomed Oleksandr, our newest postdoc! With his strong background in Urban & Transport Planning, he brings valuable expertise to our team. See more www.iscycle.ie/news#h.vvo24...

🚴‍♂️ Hey e‑bike riders, cycling enthusiasts, and researchers working with power-output data, I’m looking for recommendations: what’s the most reliable crank-based power meter to install on an e‑bike that will accurately measure rider power output separately from the motor’s assistance?

We joined the 9th #CRBAM in Amsterdam! @annabarrero.bsky.social presented on e-bikes & exercise + chaired 2 sessions and @ajamesgreen.bsky.social led a workshop on active travel barriers. Great discussions, new connections & cycling culture! Read more👉 www.iscycle.ie/news#h.vvo24...
