Baby Boy's Birth

We’ve been having the busiest week ever. It seemed like there were not enough hours in the day for cycling . :(

However, the relatives we’ve been visiting by bike in Rochestown had a baby boy on Sunday morning: Daniel David. :)

I am completely new to cycling in urban areas, and have been disappointed at how motorists regard cyclists – I think there should be more focus on making motorists aware of our entitlement to be on the road as well.

The new cycle-lanes are generally great – though not too good along the South Douglas Road (across from the school) as cars are constantly parked there, blocking the cycle-lane.
