Why this group?
This group is going since 2016. We were one of the first groups generally who caters for bikers who live near or on the north side of Dublin. Most of our ride outs focus on north Co. Dublin and north/west surrounding counties, although we do sometimes venture south. The emphasis is to explore the most scenic b-roads and sometimes green lanes, as part of the mix, avoiding motorways and busy roads, where possible. We endeavour to arrange ride outs one or two Sundays per month, for a few hours when the weather is reasonably dry. We generally keep to speed limits and are not speed merchants. We also have a few weekends or longer trips away during the year to locations in the UK and Ireland primarily. Some of our members arranged trips abroad, including Morocco, Spain and Europe or even further afield.

This group is very down to earth and everybody is treated equally. New members are very welcome. If you are easy-going, and have a sense of humour you’ll fit right in.

You don’t need a new bike to feel good about being in this group. Older and classic bikes are very welcome.

We also do not like to leave anybody behind if they have a problem. We generally wait for people who are running behind and will turn back to check on people to see if they are stuck or stranded for mechanical or other reason. For longer oraway spins, we all join stay in touch via Whatsapp post so that we can communicate with each other in real time. 

Most of our rides involve stopping for coffee or lunch and having a good chat and banter. Many of the current and former members who met through this group have become long-term friends. 

This group is open to all kinds of people, from all walks of life, from any background, profession or age.
