dc.description.abstractSoon the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland will become an European outer border. Through a cycling journey following the border, a research has been done within the “flaneurie” and humanistic geography tradition combined with an ethnographic research into the borderlands of Ireland. This ‘cyclo-geography’ explored the possibilities of a site visit from the perspective of the bicycle. It argues that the bicycle is a splendid instrument to experience a rehion. Through qualitative interviews with people living along the border about living during the Troubles, life now and about the Brexit, a view on the borderlands has been made. All these themes are discussed in qualitative interviews with the inhabitants of the border lands; what their views, hopes and dreams are on this tumultuous region. Combined with the site visit on the bicycle, this research creates a story of the borderlands between Northern Ireland and Ireland. Keywords: Brexit, Ireland, border studies, cyclo-geography, ethnography, Troubles, Mobilities turn, Flaneurie.en_US
