    i'm visiting dublin for a few days next weekend (from overseas). i'm not going to bring my bike with me, but i would like to go for an offroad spin.

    is there anywhere in south/west dublin where i can hire a decent mtb for a day (maybe two ?) - i guess there will be some people going out for the day (maybe mad mtb) or i could go around hellfire/masseys for a quick spin.

    cheers

    Hello,
    I'm from MAD. A lot of people look for bikes to rent in Dublin but few ever find them. Cycleways rent Specialized Hardrocks that are kitted out for City use. i think it's about 25euro a day. They won't be much use for off-road (slick tyres). I'm a student in UCD as well, but never realised they rented bikes...no harm in trying them anyway.

    You might also look in the phone book for shops such as The Cycle Inn (Tallaght), The Cycle Superstore (also Tallaght), The Bike Rack (Cabinteely), Cyclelogical (City Centre - Ha'Penny Bridge). I'm pretty sure the cycle inn will let you rent a Demo bike for the day...not sure of the cost though.

    If you are able to rent one can you let me know? I often have people enquiring about renting bikes!

    Nigel
