Boards Jersey Sightings

YOURFACE! · 15-09-2009 1:32pm

I went down Eglinton Road, turned right onto Donnybrook Road, and then left off Donnybrook Road towards Aylesbury Road at exactly that time - so it may have been me

Yep, looked like you were heading that way!

Yes! couldn't resist saying hi on spotting a boardsie:o:)

I appologise for not being friendlier, I have music in my ears and ... a slowing down van approching from behind doesn't usually inspire confidence to a cyclist

I did say hello when I saw you were being friendly

Are ye all ready for an avalanche of Boards sightings ? 70 new pieces of branded kit on their way to their new owners from today !

Farmleigh, Sunday, c.4:30 pm- Boards jersey contemplating which ridiculously long booze queue to join.

(We made our drink selections based on the speed of the queues- cider FTW!)

That was me. Park was mobbed on Sunday, madness!

I went for the Porterhouse queue cos I had to get 16 beers and wanted a selection

Only got 8 in the end cos the cardboard tray wasn't strong enough :mad:

Good chance I was spotted elsewhere Sunday, my route in was Donabate-Malahide via Estuary, round coast to Portmarnock, still on coast to Baldoyle, through Howth village, over summit, down along coast to Clontarf and then into the Park along the quays. Home via Santry/Swords to Donabate. Lovely day for a nice cycle!

Spotted a boardsie crossing over the canal on Mount Street a bit before 9 this morning with a flashing L.E.D and panniers on the right hand side.

Thomas_S_Hunterson · 16-09-2009 10:29am

Saw one yesterday at the lights outside UCD, would have been around 8:45.

I reckon that's me again, on my way out to Dun Laoghaire.

Jumpy · 17-09-2009 7:27pm

Now that the new order has arrived expect there to be more than normal

17-09-2009 7:45pm

Saw blorg at the Milltown Road/Eglington Road junction there. Don't think he was wearing a boards jersey. Does that count?

blorg · 17-09-2009 9:10pm

I save my Boards jersey for the weekends now. Used to have three, ironed one, crashed badly in another... so down to one. We will have to organise a Planet X-spin some time, I think it will be the new Boards bike!

thought that was the cayo !

LastGasp · 17-09-2009 9:54pm

The gear only gets ordered every now and then when someone decides to take it on to organise ! I've just done an order, but the gear was all specifically for people who ordered it. There probably won't be another order done for a while. Have a look at the Sticky Thread "5th Boards Gear Order" for details.

DirkVoodoo · 17-09-2009 10:03pm

There was one being sold on the adverts sub-forum, but it may be sold now.

blorg · 17-09-2009 10:16pm

WAS - it is now the Planet X.

@joshor123- I need more jerseys myself, unlikely really there will be much more need until the spring but I would expect another order around then.

Hi Caroline,
No need to apologise. I hope we weren't too much of a nuisance.:o
Twas a great day for a spin. How far did you go?

rottenhat · 18-09-2009 9:56am

Cycling along Upper Leeson St into town this morning at 8:15ish...black bike with rack pack, I think?

Saw two boardsie lads this morning crossing the bridge at chapelizod village 10.05,was heading to the park to try out the new bike,Hi.

kenmc · 19-09-2009 3:48pm

Nietschen (I think), with the Cayo, on Leopardstown Road (near the racecourse) @3:15.
Boards beeps duly administered, and ignored.

Nietzschean · 19-09-2009 3:50pm

Wasn't me i'm afraid...there are some other cayo's on here though

kenmc · 19-09-2009 3:52pm

Looked a bit like you, from what I could see as I went past.

Sounds like me actually, red Golf was it? Apologies for not responding though, I couldn't quite tell whether it was an angry beep or a 'howaya' beep.

I've a feeling I was spotted going up over Sally Gap too by a group of 3.

Not bad for the first proper spin with the jersey.

JacksonHeightsOwn · 19-09-2009 9:09pm

saw one today up at viewpoint, about 11.30ish, with 2 other guys, had a goatee if i remember correctly, i was rather jealous to, not of the goatee, the jersey

HereKitty · 20-09-2009 9:15am

Saw my first one today:D in Malahide Village at 9:00am, so excited I had to come right on here and post. Whoever you were, a big Hello, at that stage on my way home and was a bit browned off saying hi to cyclists who just barely would grunt, so wasnt my usual cheery self.....sheeesh...you guys!!!:rolleyes:

Yeah that was me. was definitely a howaya beep - sure I was in the outside lane as I passed!

Hello!

Might have been me, but might also have been Dr. Groove who was around too.

jimm · 20-09-2009 7:09pm

Rughdh, wearing Boards Jersey, and HonkJelly, not wearing Boards Jersey (does this count?) at the finish of the DWCC Randonnee today.

Hello to you too.

Whoever I saw was on a dark coloured bike. I was wearing black and nodded hello.

9.57 Dundrum village, dunno who it was

DirkVoodoo · 22-09-2009 7:14pm

Not really a sighting per say, but a thanks to the girls in the little black car who beeped and gave out to the taxi in Stillorgan 20 minutes ago who tried to cut me off with his stupid lane changing.

I do love motorists who do this - it's happened to me once or twice during my five years of urban cycling, and there's a tremendous love in my heart for those who give a horn admonishment to those who pick on the more vulnerable road users.

Yup, I was beside them at the lights and then when the taxi cut me off I heard a load of beeping. When I got to the next lights at the junction for the N11, I heard more beeping and looked around to see the two girls having words with the taxi. Made me feel all warm and fuzzy.

I saw ROK_ON this morning around Capel Street bridge. I was under deep cover as a car driver but couldn't remember the special boards beep!

I just opened my long-sleeve packet yesterday. Are the sleeves meant to be loose? All the other long sleeves I have are skintight.

Edit: No foreskin jokes please.
