AboutDavid Walsh Expertise As something of a transport expert, I have a darn good understanding of Irish transport
issue, both the good and the bad. I have travelled all over Ireland and I have been in every
county at least once. A lifelong resident of Dublin, I am a Dublin Taxi Driver so I know my
way around the city very well and all sorts of interesting nuggets. I also write quizzes so I
know a bit about everything, so to speak, including some of the quirky stuff! If it's about
Dublin, I'll be stuck not to know something about it; pubs, sights, history, stories and
more!
I am also a DJ with vast amounts of expertise in the industry, I am a quailfied rugby referee and have watched soccer for some 20+ years in Ireland,
Experience I have been working as a taxi driver for some years now; I am also interested in transport and current affairs and I know something about everything.
Education/Credentials I have an Irish Leaving Certificate; I also undertook the first year of a H Dip in Radio with Journalism, so it goes without saying that my communication skills are up there.
I am a DJ and have a good base in music.
I am a qualified rugby referee.
Question I have a month to take off and travel. I am contemplating going to ireland and cycling. This would be for the month of November and I am curious as to how realistic this is due to the weather. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.
Answer Hi Benjamin,
November would be a crazy month to go on a cycle tour around Ireland due more so to the short evenings than the weather. Certainly you can cycle for stretches of the day but it will be dark come 5-6PM; earlier if it's dull or wet so long distance cycling for pleasure won't be a good call.
