On your bike with Rothar.ie

On seeing the amount of bicycles abandoned and damaged in Dublin streets, Anne Bedos and Stephen Jenkins both passionate about cycling and the environment came up with Rothar.ie

Rothar formed about a year ago is a social enterprise that recycles bicycles. They accept donations of old bicycles from anybody and refurbish the bicycles to put them back on the road. Activities for young people and adults are provided and bike maintenance lessons and cycling lessons are on offer. Rothar sells either the whole refurbished bikes or second hand parts and even jewellery made from recycled bicycle parts is available.
