Apologies, the corrected post/article is here: bsky.app/profile/iris...

Never forget your rain pants

Very sad news

TUS to city centre coming along nicely. Lots of users even though it is still being built. Protected junctions are taking shape at Hassetts Cross.

Am a city bicycle commuter. Accidentally clipped a wing mirror while moving slowly, stopped to apologise and driver waved me on, no damage. But I patted the wing mirror as if to say "there, there" for some reason.

There's some level of exceptionalism here -- in fairness, you can see it in reports elsewhere, so it's not just Limerick councillors at it. But Dublin councils have been publicly streaming and making recordings available for years, why do they think their constituents should have less transparency?

Park Canal and Shannon Fields in Limerick

Biodiversity week cycle tomorrow(Saturday) starts at 11am in O’Brien Park. Fun, free, educational event suitable for all ages. A guided cycle along safe routes at a relaxed pace. There will be several stops where an expert will tell us about the nature around us.

It would be nice if @treatyunitedfc.bsky.social would follow suit

Good morning! The *checks notes* May meeting of Limerick Council's Metropolitan District is at 9:45am. Will be watching, will also be typing some of what I'm muttering in my head while watching. 🧵 Feel free to follow along: can't stop you #CouncilMeetingThread

Some of the 3,000 or so bikes at Borussia Mönchengladbach's 55,000 capacity stadium on Saturday. In Limerick we have zero bike stands at the Gaelic Grounds, Thomond Park or the Markets Field.

Limerick Cycling Campaign were out in force today to spread the good news! Lovely group spin around the city and let’s hope it helps create more awareness of the need for greater cycling infrastructure @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social @lmkurbancycling.bsky.social #activetravel #bikeweek #cycling

Solidarity with Cian Ginty on this one

Very good point (among the rest) about the cost of providing CAR parking spaces irishcycle.com/2026/05/12/k...

While the ability to see is certainly helpful when riding a bike, singer José Feliciano and opera tenor Andrea Bocelli show that even blind people can enjoy life on two wheels

One of the local suicide watch group (I think) using the Shannon Bridge bike lane. They have been using it since it was installed in the summer of 2020

Two great pubs hosting in Limerick, Sextons on Henry Street and JJ Bowles in Thomondgate

Nice event this coming Sunday. Just show up on a bike!

Congratulations to David Attenborough -- who spent his free time as a teenager riding his bicycle around England's East Midlands region searching for fossils -- on his 100th trip around the sun. One of his secrets? "If I can bicycle, I bicycle." Happy #BicycleBirthday, David! Born May 8, 1926

Walking in Thomondgate today I came across some beautiful street art. The first shows children cleaning up the area and the second honors the generations of men who made their living from the river. Painted by Splatter and Sufre as part of Limerick’s extensive Street Art Trail 👏👏 #limerick

Nice new green space near the train station. It will be easy for cyclists to visit as Parnell Street has almost 100 bike stands on a 100 metre stretch.

Nice to see that new wee park open today at the junction of Limerick’s Roches St and Parnell St. As it’s now the closest park to where I live, I feel honour-bound to say that, in a housing crisis, if Limerick Council had decided instead to build a few flats there, I’d also have been fine with that.

This is a great account to follow

Nice video about the impact of footpath parking by DLR Council www.youtube.com/watch?v=adV8...

Good bike parking demand of a Tuesday morning

Some great progress being made on the TUS to City Centre Active Travel scheme.

A frosty morning is the best bike counter.

Mad traffic in Castletroy this evening

Statement following Government leaders' meeting with the Irish Road Haulage Association

Bikes are faster than walking, cheaper than driving, and more direct than transit. What’s not to like?

Here's an Evelyn Hamilton thread 🧵

Along with riding 1,000 miles in 7 days in 1934, London to John O'Groats in 4 1/2 days in 1935, and 10,000 miles in 100 days in 1938, Evelyn Hamilton's exploits include ferrying French Resistance fighters across Paris on a tandem during World War II. #BicycleBirthday April 3 (1906-2005)

There's a meeting of the full Limerick City (and, feckit, the county too) Council at 3pm today. Will be watching. Might be fun in parts, like the dodgy end of a curate's egg. Feel free to follow along.🧵 #CouncilMeetingThread

unfortunately I lost it at this extremely stupid New Yorker cartoon

Important consultation event tomorrow night (Wednesday) 5pm to 8pm in Thomond Community College. A great project to support.

Aslan this weekend in Dolans

Great to see #Rome getting more #ActiveTravel friendly. I’ve walked/cycled all around the city and while it's always amazing, it was still clogged with cars. New metro stops at Colosseo–Fori Imperiali, new plaza around the Colosseum, new cycle lanes & links, and a new 30kph speed limit 👏🇮🇹 📸 Reuters
