Vintage bike curiosities in Dublin, Ireland?
I'll be traveling to Dublin over the last week of June and first week of July. Anything I should not miss? My wife is on a work trip for some of it, and I am tagging along with our two kids (3-year-old twins), so I don't anticipate much riding, but I would love a swap meet or something like that. Anyone have any recommendations?

Raleigh operated a factory there for a number of years.
You might wish to go to the address and make a photo of what is there today.
IIRC factory was destroyed in a fire.

When I was in Dublin last year the best I encountered by far was the leprachaun museum.
