If our story about 2,600 cyclists being brought to court between 2003 and 2011 was not enough, below is visual proof that cyclists do get stop by the gardai and on-the-spot fines due by the end of the year will make it easier…

Not sure what this picture proves. I see two cyclist talking to two Gardai. It can be about anything, really.
It proves that cyclists do and can get stopped by the gardai. Amazingly some people — including the odd cyclists — that we’re in contact on twitter and boards.ie etc are in denial about this…
I do not see this in this picture.. And I know Gardai stop cyclists as I have been stopped myself. It was for letting some kind of VIPs get out of a hotel, but I was stopped. Do you not see the question mark at the end of the sentence? This picture just shows two cyclist talking to two Gardai. Suggesting anything more is conjecture.
