About Drogheda Cycling

The idea for the Drogheda cycling Group was started by Local resident Noel Hogan in 2020. Noel wanted to help develop a culture of safe family friendly cycling in the Drogheda area. It quickly became apparent that there was a real need for cycling advocacy in the Drogheda area. This need was due to the lack of infrastructure and general poor safety for cyclists on the roads in the area. Noel became active on social media, and quickly found support from the people of Drogheda.

Since the group’s first social media posts, interest has increased, and likeminded local cycling advocates and enthusiasts have gathered around this call to arms. The group as it became, first met in March 2021, and have since become a formal Group centred around our mission statement and shared objectives. There is real momentum and energy in the group, and we call on anyone in the locality who shares our vision for cycling in Drogheda to get involved. If you agree with our mission statement below and want to help, please make contact.

Community Cycle to Laytown

-
Save the date for the next community cycle on Sunday, 12 October. There's currently no rain forecast, and the winds are light. Our route is 24 km and pretty flat. We're going to Laytown via the Marsh Road, stopping for a coffee in Sonairte before cycling back. As usual, the pace will be leisurely.
Helmets are mandatory. High viz clothing and lights are highly recommended. Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

Since the Pandemic began I wanted to try a new hobby to beat the boredom and get outdoors. I heard about the cycling group recently set up so I decided to give it a go.
