I drove to Merrion Square, picked up a city bike and cycled it the 3 kilometres into O'Connell Street and back. With 60kph gusts of wind, it was a lot more exciting than I really needed. Having slotted it back into the Dublin Bikes stand on Nassau St., I remembered my Fuji. In the spirit of PAD, I shot these on my 300 metre walk back to the car. This bike was my selection from the Dublin Bike Scheme. Nassau St. Fuji X100S.
