Tim Leahy 

Legendary Dublin bike courier Tim Leahy passed away on May 23, 2016. Timmy was a veteran  Dublin messenger who worked on the road for over 24 years.



He was in love with the town and each morning he kissed her and toured every line in her body on his bike. A simple, quiet man who wanted to be comfortably poor and ride around "his" city on his bicycle and have a few pints and a whiskey now and then is dead. And the messengers of this city can be proud that he had never been anything else. Ride in Peace old friend.

- James Tait
