A spiffy site for Dublin City Council and the cycling unit at Dublin City Cycling. Articles, blog, events calendar, routes, maps, and an interactive Google map where you can place a pin to suggest a location for a new cycle stand in Dublin. There is voting for specific locations and some nice social media tools to help you pimp your favourite points.

To make the interactive cycle stand map possible, Drupal seemed like the best bet at the time so I worked with my other half, John Handelaar. We are in complete agreement that we are never, ever using Drupal for anything ever again. It was literally hell in a bug-ridden box.

Nevertheless, we completed this site in time to submit it to the Irish Web Awards for Best Government and Council website, but it didn’t make the short list, which is kind of a bummer. But it was fun anyway – the client is happy happy and Anthony McGuinness was a pleasure to work with. Dublin City Council should give him a raise for being a super-hero.
