Hi there, that was me with the old Raleigh. Just picked it up off the guys at Rothar.ie a few weeks ago. Delighted with it and a big fan of what the guys up there are doing. Nice blog, will be back again.
Hi Chewy. I was watching out for an Old Raleigh myself at one stage but now I have no Room in the House to many Bikes and my Shed has a Hole in the Roof. I seen one in the Bike Shop n Fairview but it is a single Speed and needs some Work on it.I met the Girl Anna who Runs Rothar a few times at the Dublin Cycling Campaign meetings,she is Foreign and very small and Thin very nice to speak to.
The Majority of People who look at this Blog are all from Overseas,Netherlands,American, English but hardly any Irish People.
This is why sometimes it has some nice Pictures of Dublin as well as Bikes ,growing Veg and Dogs sometimes.
So many bikes! great to see. Wish we had that many bikes over here in Sydney
Thanks Daniel. We are on the Cusp of a wave after many Years in the Doldrums of not many People being left Traveling by Bicycle. Only those Life long users who never gave up were left Cycling on a Daily basis.
You would have to go back to 1970 to get the same level of interest. But now since about 8 Years the Numbers have crept up again and are growing steadily. The Government although already trying to promote Cycling have to finally wake up and provide better Facilities, all Bodes well for Cycling in Ireland now.
It's always great to see so many bikes.
Today the weather was beautiful (around 4°C and sunny) and saw a fair amount of bikes. Hopefully as the weather warms up I'll be seeing more bikes out and about!
