‘cyclists dismount’ is not a traffic sign which is backed up in any way by law; it’s unenforceable.

Maybe it’s only a cautionary sign?
Not everything has to be “the law”.
Stewart Curry
If you ignore it you probably deserve what happens to you.

I would love to have the bottle to have that as my karaoke song.

ah the ol’ last minute change to ‘Baggy Trousers’ every time, is it?

If it ain’t broke…

why indeed. It’s not as though cyclists pay any attention to road signs.

haha bitter bottomhole.

more likely the curse of a daily cyclist. My car has very comfy seats.

Note also high-quality translation on the sign. The Irish for “dismount” is not actually “dismount.”
(Stands back as pro-and anti-bike flaming merges with pro- and anti-Irish flaming.)

Seems to make sense with a JCB swinging around

Surely if, as a cyclist, you can see that sign, you’re on the wrong side of the road?
Bingo Slimz
Correct. So in that sense, the sign makes perfect sense with or without the JCB.

It’s not a road, it’s a cycle path.

Are they not unidirectional unless a white line is painted down the middle?

is ‘dismount’ the irish for ‘dismount’?
Rudy
Could they not have found someone who knew the Irish for “dismount”?
“Tuirlingt de rothar” apparently
eamonn clancy
Hmm…long shot here, maybe something to do with JCB in the background?

Also, it doesn’t say “Dismount Here” or “Dismount Now”. Maybe it’s just reminding cyclists to dismount at some stage in the future?

Mr. T.
Cyclists who cycle the wrong way down one way streets and are surprised when someone steps out in front of them.
I want to punch those cyclists.
(And I am a cyclist, just not a stupid one).

Perhaps instead it is an existential statement from maybe a street art project along the lines of –

I’m sure someone can come up with wittier ones than these mediocre efforts..

Ah here, c’mom. Do ya not see the JCB in the background? Dismounting may lessen the chances of getting a slap off a half tonne weight bucket.
Probably advisory to cyclists as the designated cycle path is over crowded by pedestrians, dog walkers, joggers, toddlers and parents pushing buggies, therefore making the cycle path unsafe for cyclists to use.
