The Dealer can often be found humming along to that famous Katie Melua song. You know how it goes, “There are nine million bicycles in Beijing”.
Well, it seems farmers may get a chance to sing it on their bike cycling around Dublin in the not-too-distant future; not nine million of them, of course, but maybe 3,000 in a protest.
Apparently there is diverging opinion on what the aesthetics of driving a couple of hundred tractors around Dublin for the day would look like. Greta Thunberg and her supporters may not look on it favourably. One suggestion has been to drive 100 tractors, 100 jeeps and bring 3,000 bicycles for farmers to cycle around Dublin instead.
