Its bloody stupid…but if there is no were to lock it what do you do. The Council goes on about about making the city more bike friendly, but its a very long way from achieving it.
the good helen
funny enough I knew it was lidl before reading it, I used to shop in lidl on malahide road and same thing. Not a Dublin bike but bike users always parking their bikes like that. unbelievable.

I’d be with you on that one Gavin but on this occasion there’s a Dublin Bikes station 200m away on Oliver Bond St.
Pedestrians are already poorly served by the footpaths on Thomas St so without widening the footpath there is no space for bike racks

How do you lock a dublin bike anyway? Can they only lock to a station?

There is a metal cable, with a locking pin at the end.
There is also a socket for the pin to lock into.
You wrap the cable around the implement you want to secure it to, pop the pin into the socket and it has a little key that you turn and remove from its keyhole.
The pin is now secured in the socket and should stay in place untill it is unlocked with the key.
Additional peace of mind can be derived from the fact that nobody would be arsed stealing the thing.

Maybe it’s for cycling around the supermarket.

In fairness i live in that area and the scumbags from Oliver bond(not stereotyping), iv seen them, are always stealing people’s bikes from outside the shop. So safer bringing it in to the trolley area.
That’s the most disgusting thing I have ever seen.
The pinnacle of societies downfall!
Society’s I mean (I think)
Dublin city bikes are a menace. Swear Im going to throw one of them in the Liffey before the summers over, preferably with the rider still on it.
I +1 that.
Calm down little man!
Little man? Go make a map of people who give a toss about your maps pal, shouldnt take long.
I throw you in the river you miserable c*%t
