    Classic pink with BMC shorts, around noon today, flying past me up Howth hill. Which admittedly would not have been difficult.

    The time and shorts sound like me, but I was in the 3 stripe jersey, not the pink. Was it across from the cemetery, having just passed a stopped cyclist adjusting his jacket?

    Must have been seeing oddly then because that sounds right. You were gone before you'd have heard the "Hello Boardsie". The jacket adjuster also dropped me 2 mins later. More training needed.

    Spotted pink jersey and a huge beard ☺ on Percy Place today you were passing bank of ireland I was parked just outside .

    A bearded Boardsie sporting the new jersey passed me on the cycle path heading towards Sutton this morning at around 7:30ish. Gave a "mornin' Boardsie" shout out!


  • Registered Users Posts: 562 ✭✭✭fillup


    A bearded Boardsiet!

    That would be me sir. I've been called many a thing in my time but that's a new one on me!

    I heard ur shout out and returned it but u were prob out of earshot at that stage.

    'Bearded Boardsie' has a nice ring to it - I'm fond of alliteration!

    Sadly your tailwind was my headwind so it would have cruely whipped away your reply!

  • Registered Users Posts: 7,276 ✭✭✭kenmc


    yeah some sort of green bibs I think. was busy merging into exit Lane, only got quick glance.


  • Registered Users Posts: 587 ✭✭✭L'Enfer du Nord


    An in door sighting.

    In the 108 in Rathgar c. 21.00 today. both cyclist and bike were in the pub.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,854 ✭✭✭Rogue-Trooper


    Had a chat with a Boardsie sporting the new bibs & jersey in Clontarf this morning. Didn't get to ask his name as we got separated on East Wall Road in traffic before I turned off onto East Road.

    Green jersey on Harold's cross road on Saturday around 2.30 (may have been 2.15). But the cyclist was a very lucky boy! Went through a red light just as a walking Garda patrol came into view, so lucky not to be given the €40 fine.

    Annoyed me tbh. It's not that hard to wait at lights, and breaking them gives a cyclists a bad name.

    Hi that was me this morning. Good chatting with you. Lovely morning for cycling.

    New black stripey jersey between kimmage and templeogue (near fortfield road) at 1830 yesterday (heading in a templeogue direction). Those jerseys are much harder to spot.

    That would have been me on Wainsfort Road heading for home from work.

    Haha, guilty! Finished my spin 30 mins earlier than expected and couldn't resist sneaking in for a pint and a coffee as my post ride recovery. Say hello next time!

    Jersey in howth yacht club this evening heading for the changing room


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,854 ✭✭✭Rogue-Trooper


    2 sightings this morning......

    Met an undercover Boardsie (Boards hat hiding under helmet!) at Howth summit at an ungodly hour this morning.

    Then passed full new kit in Clontarf and gave a hello - given the time, direction & beard I'm assuming it was fillup again!
