The art of pothole spotting on the capital’s streets.

An essential ability necessary for cycling in Dublin these days is to spot the potholes and then the broken glass in the tiny cycle lanes.

Cyclist are modern day pothole spotters.

Once spotted they must be avoided at all costs but doing so in seconds the cyclist has to make sure s/he is not mowed down by a cyclist or vehicle.

It can be a fatal manoeuvre. And almost impossible not to scream abusive expletives.
