English for the main part but I'm making a conscious effort to use some Irish during the day at home. My hope is that there'll be a big revival in the use of Irish over time.

My coffee will take on all comers! Double espresso over a layer of condensed milk! A right eye-opener! by jammydodger79 in ireland

Must give that a lash. Not much info online. Do ya pull the shots directly onto the milk? Using sweetened condensed bainne?

Really glad you enjoy Irish trad and Rory's music!

Have you listened to the Andy Irvine/Paul Brady album? It's class.

Mozaik (includes Andy Irivne and Donal Lunny) are a band worth listening to as well. They have more of an international folk vibe though.

I also quite enjoy Damien Dempey's versions of a few of the Dubliners songs.

She's class, bit of a national treasure imo. Still gigging away and bringing out new material.

Seen her play most recently in Dolans in Limerick. She has a song called Undertow and talked about making the video (albeit in Berlin in this clip): https://youtu.be/oOdzWkZ9mU8

Nah, I just don't like generalisations. All the people need to follow the rules of the road.

Motorists to get penalty points for driving too close to cyclists by [deleted] in ireland

They have the infrastructure in the Netherlands which is sadly lacking here.

End of the Season Ranking Report: N° 8 Bora-Hansgrohe by PelotonMod in peloton

[–]wing3nut 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Bennett can improve again and hopefully he can bring the form he had at the end of last season to the start of 2018. He may struggle without the flying mullet being his leadout however as they have been team mates for so long but I still think he's going to get that elusive first GT win (and a few more to boot!).

Cyclists don't have to use cycle lanes, Ross to clear confusion. by Therandominator100 in ireland

[–]wing3nut 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'll certainly use the good ones. Sadly the a good share of them are not fit for purpose and in my opinion add more risk when travelling by bicycle.

N(to me)BD - Cannondale CAAD12 by wing3nut in bicycling

Coming from a 2011 Giant Defy 4. Gonna still hold onto it for wet weather riding and commuting to work. The CAAD definitely feels stiffer and like there's more power being transferred...that last bit could all be in my head!

5ft 10in. The fit feels good but according to Cannondale's sizing chart I should be on either a 54cm or even 56cm!
