Ray D'Arcy's Small Step
I got sick of sitting in traffic for over an hour every day for just an eight mile round trip. Nowadays I use the bike as much as possible. You’d want nerves of steel cycling in Dublin’s traffic but overall I enjoy it. There should be more incentives for people to get out of their cars including better cycle lanes.
I think it’s possible to make a difference by using alternatives to the car whenever you can. It could be as simple as taking a bus, train or luas a couple of times a week. Walking or cycling a few miles is also healthier. Give it a try and see where it takes you.
