A young lad is trying to enjoy the good weather on a dangerous bike here in Sandyford. It's not fixable, broken rear axle, no gears, brakes unuseable. Does anyone in the area have a "previously loved" mountain bike? That might be easier than fixing this bike that is well passed its best by date...

Helmet On, Filter Off: What Dublin's Cycling Campaigns Won't Show You
The reality of cycling in this city is messier, wetter, and shaped by class, weather, theft, and the daily calculations people make about whether it's worth the risk.

It isn't every day that we get a chance to welcome a gorgeous centenarian like Pauline, seen here with her daughter Dianne and our pilot Dave, going out for a stroll by the seafront and a 99 from Teddy's. @dlrcc.bsky.social @cyclingwithoutage.bsky.social

Hello lovely donors and supporters of The Bike Hub. We have a batch of bikes going out tomorrow to a couple of families and we are short of a bike suitable for a five year old girl. Please let us know as soon as possible if you have a suitable bike for us near Crumlin. Streamers not essential!

Volunteer with Experience Needed! Upcyclers is a very successful social project operated by The Bike Hub that is mostly staffed by volunteers that give a few hours a week to help get bikes processed, serviced, tested and distributed (for free) to people who need a bike, but can't afford one. 1/2

And the winner of the prize bike sponsored by Greenaer for the #BikeWeek2025 Treasure Hunt in Dun Laoghaire is.... 2 y.o. Caelan! He picked his new Moustache balance bike up yesterday. We're just not sure that he likes his new bike, what do you think?

So #bikeweek2025 is over. We're still recovering from 20+ events that we organised. One last thing, there was a secret prize from the treasure hunt, offered by @greenaero.bsky.social for a very specific age group. We will announce the winner soon.

Born on this day, January 17: Muhammad Ali, boxer & activist (1942-2016). Legend has it Ali took up boxing as a 12-year-old because his bike had been stolen and he wanted to "whup" the kid that did it. Happy #BicycleBirthday, Muhammad!
