    That would probably have been me. I hope I was obeying the rules of the road*

    *I think I went through an amber light

    Bad boy! Giving us boardsies a bad name... does no one know the rules: "anyone in board gear must remain a model cycling citizen at all times"

    :D

    There is a great deal of pressure to be law-abiding wearing that jersey.
    Stopping at every red light actually gets you some odd looks though.

    Gets you odd looks, but your overwhelming smugness at doing the right thing, and being law abiding is much greater :)

    And if you really want to put an uber-positive spin on it, you can use the stopages as intervals and sprint back to top speed :)

    I went down in group 3, but decided it was a bit slow, so came home with 4/5 (They decided to just go as one group on the way home)

    First random spotting of boards.ie gear ! I was even thinking how disappointing it was that I hadn't seen anyone yet with the gear as I started on the way home.

    I couldn't see if the sandals were being worn though.

    I had my first random spotting today too. Since acquiring a fixie I have developed a keen eye that checks out the rear hub area of any likely hipster. Coming down into Clonskeagh I saw a possible candidate on the other side of the road on this bright yellow monstrosity and sure enough, rear hub confirmed it- singlespeed. It was only after making this assessment that I looked up and noticed it- a boards jersey!

    Caroline.ie & a few others in Enniskerry today, then Blorg I think (recognised from photos on here!) heading fast down hill into Enniskerry village shortly after. I was sitting waiting for someone near the top of the hill in disco kit and gave you a wee wave :)

    Had my first sighting yesterday morning on the coast road beside sandymount. The owner of the jersey was hot on the heals of another gentleman sporting a yellow jersey.

    'fess up!

    My personal stalker knows my whereabouts better than I do myself. Yes, sounds like it was me, and yes, I do commute in my boards gear ...
