    The Bike Shed, Cork

    The Bike Shed set up in a shipping container in 2011 and has grown steadily since. We are now in our fifth premises. The original idea was to save bikes from landfill centers and get them back on the road. We have gone from there to providing top quality service in bike sales, repair, service and hire.

    The Rebel Pedals

    They have a very friendly team of Event Organizers/Hosts who work well together. They organise 4 types of events: 'Roadrunners' - chasing personal bests even KOM's, love long distance hilly tours. 'Alpacas' - mid pace improvers, 21km/hr average with a few 40k's under belt and ready for tackling 80k+. Leisure cycles - come one come all. No clock watching here but might bring a picnic to share (typically 25k, mostly flat). Once off events - Mountain biking, sportives, hillwalking and social events.
