I took some photographs, which, I hope, reproduce well. The first shows the equivalent of one car parking space that can accommodate 10 bicycles, mopeds or motorcycle instead. I gave a copy of this photograph to the O Connell Street Upgrade Liaison Committee weekly meeting last Friday and asked them to consider including such a cycle stand. It would reflect a very progressive view on shopping and integrated transport. It would actually be the first cycle stand in Ennis UDC .
Word is that the first is on the way very soon.
A surprising statistic from the Irish Restaurant Association Yearbook and Diary 2001 may help make the decision to welcome cyclists. This is the average for the last three years. Considering that is 1,000 more than came to fish, it would seem a timely addition to the facilities provided in Ennis . The traditional market square in Brugge is striking being dominated by the architecturally magnificent Town Hall and Belfry and Halles. They tower above the viewer.
