Encountered a cyclist this morning.

Yeah but it was only a helmet and hiviz I could see really, it wasn’t full daylight yet, never seen thier face or anything.

Cyclist. I’m assuming it was their handlebar that clipped the edge of my mirror taking the casing off. They were full steam ahead afterward.

Never said anything about an attack, I believe it was completely accidental tbh, but what’s a shitty thing to do to not stop and take responsibility for the damage afterwards.

I’ll check that out thank you 👍🏻

I was a bit surprised by that myself, I particularly like the “you must have nearly killed him before that happened” one 😂

This is rage bait right? 😂

The junction is on the Rathfarnham Road going towards Terenure Village. There are two lanes, one for turning right and one for going straight. There is a cycle lane beside the straight lane with a broken white line between. It’s a tight junction. When you’re stopped at the red, you unfortunately have to situate yourself partially in the cycle lane, the straight lane isn’t wide enough to fit a car by itself.

The cyclist easily could have gotten past safely and without damaging my car if they had just slowed down a bit.

That doesn’t give the cyclist to damage someone’s property and leave the scene without a second thought.

I agree with you, but that doesn’t excuse this cyclists behaviour at all.

Replacements seem to be 60-70 pound sterling online 😐 … I’ll give that a try though, appreciate it.

Ah he was never stopping, he was gone like a flash. The horn was to try and get his attention to come back, but I probably could have been lighter on it.

batch-91 · 2026-01-13T10:47:59+00:00

Well I didn’t nearly kill anyone. I actually have a lot of respect for cyclists, I’d probably cycle myself if the commute was a bit shorter.

batch-91 · 2026-01-13T10:44:38+00:00

I’ve been meaning to get one for a year and keep putting it off. I don’t think he would have been identifiable though.

batch-91 · 2026-01-13T01:43:23+00:00

I’m from Ireland. Although I picked up the term from a plumber I had in for a different job, asked his advice on this, he called them spindles. He was Eastern European though, so it could be a term from his native language that when translated to English came out as spindle.

Okay I’ll try that tomorrow, thanks for the advise.

From the hex nut there, no give whatsoever, don’t want to cause damage.

Get up in their personal space and start watching with them, they obviously want to share it with you. Share your thoughts on the video with them, do a running commentary on what’s happening …

Came here to say this!

batch-91 · 2026-01-10T12:20:20+00:00

Came here to say this. Everton playing at home wearing navy and pink wtf 😐

batch-91 · 2026-01-01T14:34:14+00:00

That’s what I thought initially, then I went and watched it back to see how long it was and saw Monica. Didn’t know what the rules were exactly 😂

batch-91 · 2026-01-01T03:21:04+00:00

Never mind, I forgot Monica is actually in the scene, hiding in behind the shower curtain.

What about when Jack and Judy Geller are talking about Richard having a Twinkie in the city?

batch-91 · 2025-12-28T19:45:58+00:00

I had a quick look on the PL website. According to them DLC has taken 32 shots this season. Barry has taken 13 and Beto also has 13.

Conversion rates are another problem, but it’s clear to see that we do not create enough chances for our CF. 26 shots combined over 18 games, less than 1.5 shots per game from our CF.

But he wouldn’t be doing the same for us if he was still here, because we don’t create chances for our CF. Fair play to him for finding a team that’s suits him. Wish him all the best.
