This is an absolutely gorgeous book. Was just perfect for the quiet days after Christmas

A lovely film, from an active travel journalist/film-maker/activist from Germany. For your enjoyment over the Christmas holidays, fellow Irish bike people! 🚲 @dublincycling.bsky.social @ibike.ie #activetravel #cyclingcities

Dr Vinnie Wall of the @corkcyclingcrew.bsky.social spoke to @jerosullivanrk.bsky.social on @radiokerry.bsky.social earlier about the government's scandalous decision to abandon plans to reform the Road Safety Authority. @darraghobrientd.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/60ez...

Really liked this little book. Such a pretty edition too. We love our old-fashioned German Advent traditions in the family- a lovely old Icelandic story fitted well.

Dublin was pretty in pink this morning.

If you’re curious about “25 ready baked ideas” for #housing they include building garden sheds & dark studios the size of 2 parking spaces; super inflating land values; & new shortcuts that risk “irregular practices”, public safety, the environment, & incurring fines on climate targets #halfbaked

Wonderful joyous bike disco in the Phoenix Park last night. So many happy kids on bikes. Super effort by @fingal.ie @ibike.ie, Dublin CC, OPW etc.

How ironic that I'd be drawn to this..... at the airport. After signing petitions againts lifting the passenger cap too. 🙎‍♀️ Hope there is a chapter on aviation because I really struggle with that one.#cognitivedissonance @thinkorswim.bsky.social

I think they are having fun at DnB with DJ Dom Whiting. #Dublin #Cycling #iBikeDublin

The consultation on Ireland’s Second Whole of Government Circular Economy Strategy is now open! Launched by Minister of State Alan Dillon, this consultation is your chance to shape Ireland’s circular future. Find out more here: gov.ie/en/departmen... @gov.ie

Quite a nice quote for current times too!

This is appalling from the Irish Times. Anyone who walks or cycles around Dublin city regularly will be only too acutely aware of the risk from drivers accelerating through amber and red lights. This is not an issue to be joked about.

Gosh that's amazing that the government has solved the climate emergency and can fully focus on boosting aviation and growth again. Wish someone had told me earlier.

Fires rage across Europe – and extremists call climate action “madness.” Our leaders meet this month to decide our future. Tell them: lock in the 90% emissions cut and reject climate rollbacks. action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-08...

Happy hours among butterflies #butterflies #bavaria

Some people ride bikes for fitness, and others for transportation. Some ride for _______ 👇 ?

Absolutely thrilled to see a Swallowtail butterfly on that field but how anyone manages to take pictures of butterflies is beyond me... presumably with a lot of patience.

Bats in Munich. Could watch them forever. But not easy to capture on camera. 🦇

Awfully wet day in Munich today but great for a bike lover at a transport museum.

Brilliant!

Marsh harrier right over my head!

Hadn't really planned this to be a birdwatching holiday, but happy that it turned into one! 🙂

Bikes & bunnies II

My kind of holiday. Bikes and bunnies.

What are these peculiar new shapes on our bridges? Can't really be cycle lanes so I am guessing modern art. Like a Rothko or Mondrian for pavements!? 😉

Forget the elephant in the room. Let’s talk about the #bumblebees in the box. A thread on the commodification of bumblebees to produce your #food. The numbers, why it’s bad for wild bees and how they kill them when they’re no longer of use. Please #share. #repost. For #bees. Thanks folks. 🐝🌍🙏🏼 1/14

Fantastic! After only a tiny bit of pestering... three bike stands at Phibsboro post office. Very much needed given post office, Noms, Elliott's! Thank you @dublincitycouncil.bsky.social @feljin.ie

Interesting to watch the different preferences. The bees are all over the ceanothus and totally not interested in the phycelia and the bumblebees are the opposite!

#BikeToBloom ❤️🚲🌸

It’s almost Friday 6pm - see you then! #CriticalMass #CriticalMassDub #IBIKEBop

It goes without saying.. if there is a cycling-related event, there must be gingerbread bikes 😆😋

So I left some pockets of nettles (thinking of butterflies) and now they are totally covered in aphids. I believe the ants farm them and are happy. Have no ladybirds. Can I just leave the aphids or will they become problematic for rest of garden?? So much to learn - #urbanrewildingnewbie

Never been to this festival before but delighted I booked a few events this year! Teenage son enjoyed that talk too!
