Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Ireland bikeshops

I am going to Ireland next month...mostly to drink. But I'd love to get a cool LBS kit from an irish bike shop to bring back as a souvenir (that and enlarged liver). Not many posts on the europe regional forum so I post here. I'll be in dublin/belfast/derry for the most part. any suggestions? thanks.

Check with the local shops and ask for local clubs as well. You may be able to get a local clubs kit for a great price and have something few in the states have.
A friend lived in Belgium for 5 years and bought some great thermal jackets, etc. for me from local clubs. I did not want Pro stuff...that is fairly easy to find. I wanted small club stuff especially in Flemish and that is what I got. It always gets questions, etc. when I wear it when riding with a group, etc.
Good luck, enjoy and tell us about your trip when you get back.
