It could be 40 minutes from Foster Place to the 3 arena.

They will do a deal with the Point Depot or the Corona Castle or whoever sponsors it in future and include a dollar a ticket when you buy a ticket and it will be free on the LUAS if you have a gig ticket .How many MMA or Darts fans do you think pay the fare on the Luas the Gotchies would have no chance trowing them off or charging anybody .

Unless the passenger can't walk I'll always dump them off at Ringsend pedestrian entrance to the East link.

If you get stuck on the North wall in Traffic there is always the chance the passengers might jump out and walk and potentially leave ya stranded in the gridlock with no customer.Happened once, never again.

The new founded cycling lobby group ( who have become quite militant in recent times ) want every street car and bus free.

They want EVERYONE to travel by bike.

They're right though.Too many cars everywhere.We're all getting fatter every year.Too reliant on four wheel transport.

Dublin city is for the tourists.As the city grows the pedestrianised areas will also grow.We will get fukked out no doubt.

In thirty years most of it will be pedestrianised between the canals.

Surely bicycles present an ideal way to avoid using virus infested taxis, buses, trains, luaseyeses. Investment in promoting cycling, particularly as a healthy alternative to taxis or lifts, is a no-brainer. Obviously, infrastructure should be altered wherever possible to give bicycles priority over vehicular traffic.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

I presume you're part of this militant lobby given that you told us "There is no justification for the few [taximen] that are presently working. In my opinion they are putting their lives and the lives of their passengers at risk" in another thread.

Cyclists generally don't find a whole lot of support around here so don't expect an easy ride... Welcome aboard.

Nope, I'm part of the militant taxi lobby group (note sarcasm)
Thanks for the welcome  ;)
