New Montreal mayor didn't like people saying "cyclist traffic is large and increasing" so she closed down the cyclist-traffic-counting system.

BREAKING: We just won our antitrust trial against LiveNation and Ticketmaster. Live Nation has raked in billions in profits from an illegal monopoly that coerces venues, restricts artists, and exploits fans. This is a massive win in the fight for fairness for local venues, artists, and fans.

My political crush rides an e-bike? I couldn’t love her more!

“it’s like saying a healthy diet plus smoking is better than doing nothing – and then claiming smoking is good for your health.”

Some very creative accounting was used to deem the Galway ring road compliant with Ireland's climate plans, writes architect and transport planner Ciarán Ferrie. jrnl.ie/7009217t

"This has led to considerable scratching of heads amongst observers because the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) submitted with the application seems to say something different. It projects a 6-8% increase in vehicle kilometres and a 37% increase in carbon emissions."

Two vulnerable road users killed in Dublin in the past week by the drivers of heavy vehicles, one at the site of this protest.

14 cyclists killed by drivers last year

Happy Birthday R.E.M. ! @remhq.bsky.social @millsish.bsky.social @michaelstipe.bsky.social @theeminus5.bsky.social

“How’s IrishCycle.com going?” Honest answer: It needs to be better sooner rather than later -- IrishCycle.com was funded by as low as 0.05% of total readers last year. -- The open-access, reader-funded model only needs a low percentage of readers.-- But your help is needed to make it slightly…

Congratulations on unlocking something that can be fun, enjoyable and highly practical for always.

“I think it’s stupid I drive five minutes. But I do,” Fitzpatrick said. “Because the bus sucks.” Secure or supervised bicycle parking might encourage more use and free up road space who can’t easily make the same choices.

Wow you post this article after posting that video blaming pedestrians for getting killed WTF is wrong with you? Please stop sucking on the tail pipes, it's giving you car brain!

Nice loop of the city this evening

Mood!

"Don't wear headphones, it's dangerous" For the folks in the back: I call out these hi viz,no headphones, blame/shame campaigns because we had decades to figure out what works (and we know what does) It's not like road violence snuck up on us last week and we had to scramble to find a solution.

“Fastest, cheapest with lovely sections along the Dodder and Grand Canal that you can't enjoy on a bus or in a car. Bike is best!” Via @news.rte.ie A race between car, bus and e-bike? Now try it again with a dedicated bus-lane so full busses aren’t stuck in all that single-person car traffic.

If there was ever any doubt, Michael Shannon is absolutely extraordinary.

Haha. The two top tier internet birthday shoutouts back to back!!

Lowering the speed limit to 15 miles per hour around schools isn't a "war on cars" or a war on the middle class as some politicians and the New York Post say: It's common sense safety for New Yorkers. @realgershkuntzman.bsky.social explains: youtube.com/shorts/Lagbl...

Sounds to me that the Michael Shannon and @jasonnarducy.bsky.social tour is going great! We’re going in September (September!!!) Please share your comments, videos, set lists and pictures! Thank you

Woman who starts riding a bike not sure if she should be a poor unemployed loser who can't afford a car or an elite smug entitled asshole with a toy, asks neighbourhood Facebook group to help out.

A local resident has kindly removed the screws from the cycle lane on Old Cabra Road 🙏 The 35 minute response time from Dublin City Council was impressive but the early worm gets the screw! 😂

What a beautiful day! Thinking of taking the kids #cycling? GREAT idea! This will help: www.willcycle.com/2024/11/12/c...

90% Of Irish Towns Not As Well Planned Out As Play Mat Everyone Had As A Kid https://waterfordwhispersnews.com/2025/05/28/90-of-irish-towns-not-as-well-planned-out-as-play-mat-everyone-had-as-a-kid/

The new sharrows have dried, let's try 'em out!

25+ years derelict. In Dublin City Council ownership since 2019. No funding from the Department of Housing to rebuild. The two derelict houses on 19 & 21 Connaught Street have been abandoned by the state. They're now structurally compromised and a risk to the neighbouring houses on the terrace.

A very good thread about new adventures on a cargo bike following a trial via @limerickecargobike.bsky.social library. A game changer, car trips reduced to 1 day a week. Predictable journey times and good vibes from the passengers. What’s not to like. Go team Ronan!

* We put Christmas lights on the bike during December and will dig out some green lights for next week! * The kids love it and we're able to chat on our bike ride.. but to be honest I just love listening to their conversations and songs they sing as they go to school/sports/town etc.

7 deaths on our roads over the weekend including a 16 y/o girl walking her dog. Why the obsession over hi-vis? Why the reduction in active travel funding? Where are the 30km/h zones? Where are the red light cameras? Why no enforcement? Why aren't intelligent speed systems default on new cars?

Quiet as Utrecht at rush hour..

High vis all the things.

We firmly oppose this measure, as existing evidence indicates that such laws do not, in fact, protect people who cycle. The union should be calling for better active transport infrastructure instead of deflecting responsibility to the most vulnerable people on the roads.

I think I was trying to fit too much into this... The last few weeks of threats of making high-vis and helmet mandatory for all cyclists -- which is still a live threat for e-bicycles (with motors limited to 25km/h) -- have been draining. A lot of it stems from how dysfunctional the RSA is.
