DCC Exhibition

A sub-committee of the DCC recently met to design and produce an exhibition on cycling in Dublin and its advantages for the city. A great deal of the initial design has been done and some of the production has begun. It will take some time to finish the project and all help would be gratefully received. We hope to put the exhibition on in places such as ENFO, local Libraries, at relevant conferences and at our own public meetings. Ring 7000312 with all offers of help.

  Home-based Activists

Activists, yes, but time for it, no! As parents of two small kids, the wonderful Spins and Phoenix Park cycles get little attendance from us. Rather than despair at the small numbers who might attend events, think instead of the home-based support the Campaign enjoys - in our house, at least.

We are actually a true cycling family, in that we don’t have a car. The two kids are four and one, and our mode of transport is the bicycle. We claim Dubliners don’t need cars as much as they claim they do. Our lifestyle wouldn’t be for everyone, but it does suit us.

Your suggestions to write letters and contact TDs and Councillors are very workable ideas - we usually participate with these. (ANS)
