We're the Dublin 8 School Cycle Bus!

[D8CycleBus @D8CycleBus]

The Dublin 8 School Cycle Bus will be operating as usual this Friday, and in support of our neighbours in the @D12BikeBus & the call for safe routes to school!

As the D12 crew have nabbed the local mayors and diplomatic delegations, we invite everyone else to join us! 😀🚲

[D12 Bike Bus Network @D12BikeBus]

Great news! Joining us this April 1st on our cycle to school - making it safer and easier.

Netherlands Ambassador to Ireland Adriaan Palm @AdriaanPalm
Lord Mayor of Dublin Alison Gilliland @AlisonGilliland
Mayor of South Dublin Peter Kavanagh @TheKavOfficial

Come join us too

Ceci la rue à l'école, @DubCityCouncil 👇🏼

It requires more than pencil bollards and colourful thermoplastic road markings. 💕

These "rues aux écoles" (School Streets) are a big win for the safety of kids.

My trusty 1980s Peugeot bike was nicked in Dub 8 while I was on holidays. If anyone spots it abandoned around Dublin please let me know. ⁦@dublincycling⁩ ⁦@D8CycleBus⁩

Cycling to school will radicalise you

[Geraldine Herbert @GerHerbert1]

Looking to speak to people about the cycling infrastructure around the country. Eamon Ryan is calling on councils to spend the unclaimed €129m fund for bike lanes and walkways – to date has the money been spent on useful and lasting measures? RTs appreciated

[D8CycleBus @D8CycleBus]

Oh my god. 😲 GAME. CHANGER.

@DubCityCouncil @DCCTraffic, can we please have these for our School Cycle Buses?

This is needed at pretty much all our signalised junctions, but esp at Dolphin's Barn/Leonard's Corner.

Great thread here on how to prioritise and improve cycling and walking in Dublin. 👇🏼

(But wait: did the person writing this also write that? Yes. 🙂)

Ideas for the four Dublin local authorities (@DubCityCouncil @sdublincoco @Fingalcoco @dlrcc):

1. All works subject to Universal Design principles

2. Total re-imagining and re-allocation of all road space (wall-to-wall) to prioritise walking/wheeling and cycling:

@elliemurphie @clicky_here @elainesnowden @Sinabhfuil After overtaking parked cars on the downhill, we go through slowly, adults on the carriageway and kids on the cycle lane, re-joining in a group afterwards (staying on South-Circular Road). As nerve-wracking as all that is, I'm just glad we don't cycle through onto Herberton Road.

[Cumann Báire Chaoimhín @KevinsHurling]

With over 180 participants we encourage as many people as possible to cycle or walk to our Cúl Camp #VillageInTheCity @KelloggsUKI @dublincycling @D8CycleBus @DubCityCouncil

If you read one thing today, the last day of our Cycle Bus for the year, read this.

It applies every bit to @DubCityCouncil & Councillors, and the experiences of our School Cycle Bus children & parents.

"Councillors, be the leaders we need you to be."

Total legend of a 6yr old!

Cycling the width of Ireland on his Easter Holidays

[D8CycleBus @D8CycleBus]

Lads, just look at that pic. ❤️😭❤️

Don't forget - if you're around Dublin 8 or Dublin 12 tomorrow at 1pm, and can make it to the Grand Canal at Blackhorse, please give Conan and his Dad a warm welcome home from their cycle across Ireland.

[D8CycleBus @D8CycleBus]

WOW.

When we tweeted about Conan's epic adventure he was in Galway and the funds were a little over €50.

Now, he's beyond Ballinasloe and the donations are just over €900.

✨Thank you *so much* ✨

to everyone who's been sharing and donating, to such great causes.
❤️🚲

[D8CycleBus @D8CycleBus]

I hope everyone's relaxing & enjoying their Bank Holiday.

While you're chilling, one of the Dublin 8 School Cycle Bus kids is cycling the width of Ireland, from Galway to Dublin -over 220km!- in aid of two great causes.

Please donate if you can & RT! 🚲

[D8CycleBus @D8CycleBus]

Reminder: 6 year old Conan is completing his 220km+ charity cycle this week!

He's due @ Blackhorse on the Grand Canal tomorrow, 23 Apr @ 1pm.

It'd be wonderful if anyone's free to join him & give him a warm welcome home! ❤️🚲

We hope to have a welcome gang for when he arrives back in Dublin: he's expected on Sat, 23 April, at 1pm on Grand Canal @ Blackhorse. 🚲
