    Slightly OT, but how was the cycle? My trip to Howth was quite leisurely, I have discovered that my 4ZA seatclamp does not play nice with the P-X frame, I had to readjust my seatpost twice and was still 3cm down after I got home. Put a lot of strain on my knees and back. Defo would not have been able to keep up with you guys today :)

    No boards jerseys, but was anyone part of the gang re-grouping at the top of Stocking Lane yesterday, about 10.30? Orwell maybe?

    Somebody cycled passed us at the Viewing point carpark yesterday about 11.30 with a boards jersey on - we were just about to head up towards the Sally Gap (my first time, ouch).

    I think, technically, that may be third in line, seeing how Mockler asked for one originally. Unless he doesn't want a large. In which case, then yes, second.

    I'm just trying to avoid a situation where someone gets challenged to a race.:)

    Boardsie spotted at the front of a bunch of approx. 15-20 heading towards Summerhill this morning (late-ish). I was on a Vets tour heading back to Phoenix Park.

    Was tempted to shout "Boardsie", but people around me would either have thought it was some form of road hazard, or I was mental.:)

    That was me Jimm, getting in a last bit of training for my charity cycle to Galway next weekend, www.galwaycycle.ie , you did well to spot me at the front, I usually like to draft at the back :D, and I got the boardsie beep from a car about an hour later, twice in one day, that's a record for me!!

    spotted a boardsie (my first!) on the ballycullen road (near hunterswood) yesterday. It was the planet X bike that caught my eye first, very nice. There was a girl with long blond hair cycling right behind you also.

    Yep,that was me and Samsa.
    I'd say the reason my bike looked so good was that the sweat pouring off me was cleaning it as we went along.Waay over-dressed for the day that was in it.
    And the long blond hair on the other one wasn't doing my blood pressure any favours either :D

    Headphones in podcast too loud to drown out the drowning rain coming up Palmerston Road yesterday evening. Guy pulls up and says something.

    'What's your something something?'

    'Sorry?'

    'What's your soemthing name?'

    'Pardon?'

    'What's your bird's name?'

    My bird? My girlfriend? Mother of my children? Or maybe the bike? He wants to know my bike's name? But that's a secret... So I say:

    'It's a Kona Paddywagon.'

    He peers at me through the rain, very much like I've gone full retard. He's not far wrong.

    'Barrabbas' he says, enigmatically and I hang right and he goes straight and then I work it out. What's your Boards name? I'd forgotten I was wearing the jersey.

    It's Gimme, Barrabbas, and sorry about that.

    So who did I see this evening between Baldoyle and Portmarnock? High vis, red jersey with panniers. Big bright front light with that strobe double-flash (what light is that?).

    It would be great if we had another way of spotting Boardsies like a sticker or spokecard for the rest of us who haven't a jersey :)

    Nice rear disc!

    Spotted my first boardsie jersey -
    You were going out the Oughterard road just after Moycullen. I beeped twice at you :)
    Was just after mountain biking in Derroura.
    I will be doing the moycullen, spideal, galway block tomorrow, but without my mucky boards jersey :( shame but there is plenty of summer to come. Thank god the clocks are going forward soon.

    That was me, I was wondering who that was beeping. I was out doing a slow Shannapheasteen loop.
