    Anyone know that model bike the Lord Mayor was given? It looks like one I'd like.

    It's a Gazelle from the Dutch Bike Shop.

    Those blue builders jackets really add nothing do they?

    They've been using the blue jackets for years. I guess it's part of their thing now.

    Its branding more than anything I'd say.

    The IBike folks have tees instead if that tickles your fancy.

    I see Nial's photos all over the start of the Dublin City Bike Ride, did he actually do the 60?

    He had a number on his bike and all the gear on, we'll have to elevate him to a new status if he did.

    Nial all is forgiven!

    I think, though happy to be corrected, that his beef has never been with recreational cycling. He hates people who use a bicycle for transport.

    Rememeber he pleaded for the mental health of drivers to be considered? As if they were being negatively impacted upon by cycle lanes? He's awful.

    Good point Tomas.

    Just had a scan at his twitter feed and he indeed did complete the 60k.

    Where there are votes, there will be a politician ready to do a 180 on his opinion without even thinking about it.

    Yes, I can well believe he'd at least drop the subject if he thought his bilious attitude was losing votes.
