Saw a green kit on the top of cruagh. Both in boards gear. Got a big shout but I was barely able to talk!

That was me godtabh. Nice evening. Were you capturing the rain on Dublin city whilst we were bathed in sunshine in the Dublin mountains? Is it in the photos thread?

Photo was taken as I needed to take a break. Did an FTP test and was struggling. Nice picture. Must post it

Hello to Boardsie in full pink kit this morning @Terenure junction around 8:30

Think I saw the same lad at the Rathgar junction a couple of minutes later. Full pink kit and a rugged beard.

Saw one going into Howth this afternoon, with a couple of Orwell riders?

I was with a group opposite Beshoff chipper.

I thought the pink striped socks were a lovely touch

That was me. Patent pending on the socks.

Saw a red jersey on Saturday at the start of the cycle path in Clontarf with a group of people at about 12.35. Gave you a quick wave but didn't get a shout out!

Had the pleasure of meeting Alek in the middle of the incredible downpour this afternoon. I was envious of his disc brakes, especially after discovering that my rim brakes didn't seem to do anything in that kind of weather.

Ain't no red Boards jersey.

Probably the original

del_boy13 · 31-08-2015 10:02pm

Saw a boardsie on the way into Santry this evening around 6pm wearing the new kit. Was past me on the other side of the road before I got the shout out.

It was lashing down alright! Don't remember being that wet for a looong time, when I finally got home

And I was envious of your brakes being so quiet, nevermind if they were working or not. Mine were squealing so badly I couldn't hear you sometimes :P

I was heading southbound through Santry around that time dodging puddles.

Could have been pink - I had my full tobacco tint sunglasses on. I've made that mistake before

Thud · 01-09-2015 10:48am

Saw a pink one heading up Holles st. about 8am this morning

Accidental encounter with Wizardej along the canal this evening.
I meant it to be a wave of acknowledgement but it ended up leading to an awkward conversation where the Wiz was clearly wondering who I was.

Sorry dude.

Also met OldBean this evening but unless he was wearing boards.ie underwear I'm not sure it counts for this thread.

Wizardej · 01-09-2015 11:05pm

Met another boardsie (no Jersey) on canal earlier. Thanks for the reminder to get my new jersey order in!

No worries-I think I seen you a good few times on the canal and it was good to meet at last! Plus it reminded me to post about the jersey-hopefully a different design or colour for this winter!
I probably did need that baselayer after all-arms started to turn purple in that cold rain shower after!

rollingscone · 02-09-2015 8:41am

Cool.cool.

@OldBean I'm taking that "like" to confirm the boards 410 underwear theory.

The question is...which design?

OldBean · 02-09-2015 8:43am

410 budgie smugglers.

Grassey · 07-09-2015 8:23am

Pink kit spotted in the wild on the Taney Road.

Unknown Soldier · 07-09-2015 11:15am

Spotted one yesterday somewhere on the road to Dunlavin. I was coming from Rathcoole and they were heading in the opposite direction, from Dunlavin?

It looked like another Sportive or Charity cycle? I was on the IVCA West Wicklow one.

It was the Black one? With a few vertical stripes?

lethal dose · 07-09-2015 1:15pm

Looks like I got spotted.
On a red Olmo, yes we were out for Cancer Research Ireland Cycle For Life on 100k. Met a lot of cyclists coming in the other direction we were going Stratford-Dunlavin-Kilcullen-Castledermot-Tullow-Rathvilly-Baltinglass-Stratford. Turn out was down on last year but there was a lot of sports/cycling events on at the weekend.
Sharp eyes!:pac:

Looks like someone has a stalker! Not just a spotting but a photo too :eek:

OldBean · 07-09-2015 3:38pm

Pink jersey on a black bike hitting up some of the trails in Phoenix Park about 30 minutes ago. Was deep in conversation and only noticed you when you flew past.

Waiting in bushes for a Boardsie to appear is the cross I have to bear

dreamerb · 08-09-2015 5:40pm

Boards jersey and facemask coming off the Grand Canal path at Portobello shortly before 10 this morning. I'm guessing it's Wizardej from previous reported sightings. My first proper boardsie sighting so I just ended up making a weird face and not saying anything

sullzz · 08-09-2015 6:36pm

Pink jersey spotted heading towards Glenageary roundabout at about 16:30 this evening , I gave a small beep but don't think you heard .

Yep think that was me! Was speeding off to work. Were you at the bridge where the path ends?

Yes, on the bridge, heading north. Wearing black coat over black dress, very un-boards-identifiable!

For a second there I thought we had a cross-dressing Boardsie in our midst .....then the penny dropped!

Tomred13 · 10-09-2015 7:44pm

yeah.. at last

i was a jersey spotting virgin up to this evening, had never seen one in the wild ( usually spot them at sportives etc.)
Saw a Gentleman ( in pink/black boardsie top) on a lovely black cannondale cx along the north quays as i was stuck in traffic...Thank you sir for taking my cherry..

That would have been Daragh; on his way to lead me into cx peril in the Phoenix park

Cheers. Just got it and looking forward to trying it out in a few CX races.

Mercian Pro · 12-09-2015 7:48pm

Pink jersey spotted a few times on the Rebel Tour. Was not in Boards gear myself so maybe that's why there was no reply.

Dermot Illogical · 13-09-2015 12:52pm

I saw a boards jersey at Barrack Bridge, Malahide as I cycled in the opposite direction to that big cycle event thingy this morning. Someone gave me a shout along the same stretch but couldn't make out who it was in the crowd.

Skrynesaver · 13-09-2015 1:10pm

Spotted an old school orange on purple jersey on the Gread Dublin bike ride this morning.

Red arm warmers and the current kit? Might have been me.

Might have been me - new kit SS but wearing black arm warmers.

I was wondering were u were going against the flow of traffic.

Not sure, just caught a glimpse of the jersey in the crowd.

Heading to work, unfortunately. Looked to be a very big crowd on that cycle, and a huge amount of mechanicals/punctures.

Spotted 3 jerseys in the Great Dublin Bike Ride photos. 639 images browsed!... God, my facial recognition is broken, I think I'll call everybody "Dave" for today.

So, there's Dave:

I am that "Dave" gingerly negotiating the wet n slippy cobblestones.
Any chance of getting the original?
Cheers.
