Ah okayWhenever you see one of those cyclist vids posted here, they have the speed the cyclist is doing in the corner.

All i did was ask for a link to the law here that you said existed. I don't care about the UKI wasn't aware this is Irelandbut you are aware that most of the laws in the constitution were established by the English there are archaic laws in the constitution that date back to the early 19th century, if the UK established cycle speeding limits early in the 20th century it will apply here.
That's bollocks, there aren't speed limits for cyclists in the UK.Under UK law cycling speed limits where set up at the beginning of the 20th century although Ireland is backwards in being explicit in law regulating this would be legislation in the Irish judicial system somewhere among it's murky books as Ireland inherited the Anglo Irish legislation and civil service.
Also bollocks, plenty places in Cork where a cyclist can hit 50kmph going downhill, especially on the NorthsideNo cyclist will reach over 50kmph but they can exceed 30kmph there is a loophole in the law that hasn't taken into account these lycra clad idiots in recent years, cycling in the country at such speed is ok but not in a built up zone where the speed limit is 30kmph. Exceeding this also applies to cyclists check the law.
Well it's certainly not part of UK law, so you're talking crap there.I am afraid I don't have legal tomes at hand but why don't you ask your learned friend and you will be thus duly informed it's common sense really and common law.
What kind of nonsense is this?No cyclist will reach over 50kmph but they can exceed 30kmph there is a loophole in the law that hasn't taken into account these lycra clad idiots in recent years, cycling in the country at such speed is ok but not in a built up zone where the speed limit is 30kmph.

Fair enough, I'm in no rush but till you can produce such a link I will assume no such law exists in Ireland.I am afraid I don't have legal tomes at hand but why don't you ask your learned friend and you will be thus duly informed it's common sense really and common law.
Again from the UK, now if you read further down the page where you copied and pasted from, you would have read the following....Cycling speed limits were introduced at the beginning of the 20th century, and were initially set at 20 miles per hour. However, due to frequent breaches of this limit, it was subsequently increased to 30 miles per hour1. Since then, there have been no further changes to make cyclists adhere to the same regulations1.
Please note that the information I provided is based on my knowledge up until 2021. For the most up-to-date information on cycling speed limits, I recommend referring to reliable news sources or official government announcements.
No idea, I merely quoted from the link you provided.How is it people were fined for speeding on bicycles in the UK?
You do know these are the same.
Read the damned things you post.
