Now You See Me

With over 150,000 bicycles now sharing our roads with two million cars, vans, trucks and buses, Simon Delaney and Bláthnaid Treacy examine the begrudging relationship between bicycles and motor vehicles across Ireland and ask the question if you can see them and they can see you, why are we all finding it so hard to share our roads? Now You See Me will dispel some of the myths around cycling, examine the main causes of driver vs. cyclist frustration and find out what the rules of the road actually state about issues such as who has right of way on our roads, are cycle lanes compulsory and is there a drink driving limit for cyclists? The show looks at the rise of cycling in Ireland and examines if we are, in fact, ready to become a genuine biking nation. The series will examine why is there such a disconnect between drivers and cyclists, look at how we can better share our nation’s roads and what we can learn from other countries that have embraced cycling and its many benefits. Ever wonder why that cyclist is using the road and not the cycle track at the same spot every day? Ever get really angry as “yer man on the bike” suddenly slows down or swerves out from the side of the road? Well, our self-confessed “dedicated driver” Simon does; which is why he will be looking at our roads through the eyes of the more vulnerable road users (bikes and pedestrians); the ranks of which he joins when he takes on a week long challenge swapping his car for a bike.
