    Full new kit. N11 southbound at the Johnstown road junction. Around 5:10. Gave a beep
    Me! Weird because I was sure you were my mate who drives the same model/colour car with a child screen in the back, then I realised yours was a newer car and I had no clue who you were! :)

    That was myself. Only copped your jersey when you were almost past hence the lack of a proper shout!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,887 ✭✭✭traprunner

    Same here. It was just as you were passing that I realised too. I think I must be the last on here to have spotted you! Another tick on my bucket list :P

    After many club spins, we finally managed to syncronise our Boards gear. Outside our favourite coffee stop, the Coffee Mill in Maynooth. For the two people reading this who haven't already spotted Wishbone Ash, that's him on the left.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,105 ✭✭✭G1032


    Spotted a Boardsie stopped at the traffic lights just outside the Ballsbridge Hotel about 5 minutes ago!!

    ...and very pleasant welcoming staff, great cakes/scones/general food, complimentary refills, large seating area, and a place at the back for the bikes. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,054 ✭✭✭Bloggsie


    saw a couple of very cool looking recumbents outside Tansey's around the corner from there on BH Monday just gone, on any Saturday or Sunday there are a good number of cyclists sitting outside Tansey's getting a caffine fix!

    I think I saw the new jersey on the N11 at the Radison heading into town at around 7:20. I was heading out of town so hard to tell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,772 ✭✭✭cython


    Green jersey and non-standard issue (i.e. baggy :pac:) shorts about 10 past 8 this morning turning from SSG east onto SSG north on a fixie or single-speed, and taking it pretty handy by the looks of things

    Green jersey near cookstown road /city west near N7 around 245pm today


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 23,231 Mod ✭✭✭✭godtabh


    Two this morning I think.

    Defo one in Phoenix Park around 8:25 near the marathon finish line.

    10 mins before on the Strawberry Beds heading towards Lucan followed by some in in a TT bike. Looked like boards bands but may not have been


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,011 ✭✭✭✭Wishbone Ash


    brianomc near the start of the Tour of Kildare today in the full pink/green splendour!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,772 ✭✭✭cython


    brianomc near the start of the Tour of Kildare today in the full pink/green splendour!

    If he was on a Giant Defy in blue/white/grey with a black/blue catlike whisper then I saw him around a couple of times too (food stop - was rolling out as you came in by the looks of it) and the wandering around at the end), if not then I saw someone else :D

    That was me in the Phoenix Park, curtailed laps around the park with the marathon mind !

    That was me alright.
    Took me a few seconds to realise the shoutout by WA near the start. Nice to meet him briefly at the food stop.

    Was that WA in the Swords kit that you were talking to when you came in first? If not never mind, but if so then I guess that's an incognito sighting....

    Yeah, luckily I recognised him from a photo posted around here a few days ago :)

    Guy in an Orange boards jersey on the LL today. Think he was pulled over with a puncture?


  • Site Banned Posts: 20,686 ✭✭✭✭Weepsie


    Gave a wave to a boardsie in the new kit as we went opposite directions near Morton Stadium in Santry a little before 6.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,165 ✭✭✭timmy_mallet


    Er, in the toilets before the start of the Leinster Loop, was behind a Greeny/Grey Boards.ie jersey wearer, I really didn't know what the etiquette was there at all, so erred on the side of caution by keeping quiet... :)

    That might have been me. I don't recall seeing you :o as I was was dealing with a nuisance head wind and was probably paying too much attention to my new Garmin 520 toy!

    ...and Weepsie in the pink/green kit heading north at Santry at 5.45pm - a mutual sighting! :D


  • Site Banned Posts: 20,686 ✭✭✭✭Weepsie


    My first sighting of the famous WA. If I just parked at the corner of Swords Road and Santry avenue, I'd probably spot loads of folk.


  • Site Banned Posts: 20,686 ✭✭✭✭Weepsie


    Saw another boardsie yesterday on Seville place yesterday in the full pink kit. This was about 6.20 pm they were headed towards Liffey I was going towards the Five Lamps.

    Gave a wave and a shout and got one back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,440 ✭✭✭cdaly_


    T'was I, heading southside...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,419 ✭✭✭NeedMoreGears


    Yours truly - I'm 990 of 990 on that segment now. Not one of my better days ; binned the tyre when I got home
