Best idea of the summer so far? Probably….
Someone’s only gone and bought a bunch of beach cruisers and is renting them out in Strandhill. Seeing them makes me feel like I’m back in San Diego (ah those halcyon J1 days), helped enormously by the great summer we’ve been having…and which I’ve probably now jinxed.
I went for a beach wander tonight and spotted people trying them out and they look just like the logo above. Totally dreamy, with Mountain Bikes available too if the cruisers are too laid back for you. Rates look great (see below) and the marvellous Shells Cafe made a great suggestion on their facebook today to pick up a picnic (which they can helpfully provide if you want a treat), bung it in the basket and take a cycle out to Coney Island. What bliss. This is now my aim for the summer- I will test and report back soon as.
Hourly Rate €5, Half Day Rate €10 (9am-3pm or 3pm-9pm), Daily Rate €14.00 - Weekly Rates Available too. Check them out here> or along the strand.

It sounds like a great idea.
We were at the beach yesterday and it was a shame Shells or the bakery across the road were closed.
It was packed there and the pub and ice cream shop were so busy, they would have done a great trade if they were open.
