A famine graveyard & twisty road just outside #Drumshanbo in Co #Leitrim. It’s on the Kingfisher cycling route which I did as part of a cycle camping tour from Dublin via the canals to the Shannon. This section of the route follows the Iron mountains east of Lough Allen

This is a 12km loop cycle with all but 600m on local roads in #Connemara about 4km from #Clifden where you could rent bikes - the YouTube of the route ends with the route from Clifden. Or park at the Marconi loop walk

I was in Paris a couple of weeks back & cycled to #NotreDame - the hoardings around the site had portraits of all those who have worked on the restoration project which I thought was pretty cool

I’d first visited Paris in the late 1980s when it was already total traffic chaos so it was quite a treat to return at a point where much of the centre can be cycled with reasonable safety with bikes in numbers everywhere /2

Using Velib in Paris - I wanted to see the new Parisian cycle lanes & traffic reduction zones first hand so gladly popped over to visit a visiting friend. Working out how to use their shared bike scheme was a challenge so here’s the easy way

While in Paris last weekend I visited the grave of 1798/1803 rebellion leader Myles Byrne in Montmarte. Took a while to find so I’ve included the location - just discovered now he was possibly the 1st Irish person ever photographed in what was a very full life indeed
