Boards Jersey Sightings

LDB · 2008-07-03 12:39:57

Saw a boards jersey this morning around 8:20 time heading towards Seville place/upper sherrif st I think (coming from N circular road) I noticed the speed of the person first, and then the jersey ... whoever you are you were flying! It’s quite cool to spot the jersey out and about. Anyone else had any sightings?

Saw one pink last Tuesday while heading down the Stillorgan Road, my first boards jersey sighting. Any chance of another batch being made?

In 410 speak, I think that means you just volunteered. Nice one

Saw an original jersey yesterday eastbound on grove road @ 18:30 while I was waiting for the lights into Rathmines. Oh how I wished to be going eastbound at that point

That was me (yes -full pink kit).

(I got a puncture just beyond that at Dardistown.)

Was that you with a buddy in an orange top just past the (now closed) Garda station in Whitehall heading north at approx 13.40.?? You were both in the shared cycle track/footpath.

Time would be about right and I was on the shared track but I wasn't cycling with anyone (unless passing someone).

Depending on the price of jerseys and hassle of organising orders etc I actually wouldn't mind since a green boards jersey would blend in perfectly with my bike, but with my organisational skills I'd need a hand with it!

Think I spotted the classic original jersey today around noon heading up Cruagh. Just about managed to give you a 'Hey Boards!' shout, not sure if it was audible though.

Spotted derealbadger passing my place this afternoon in full boards lime green, it's a sticky dead bit of road along there, open to the elements I'd reckon he was glad to get over Dunmurry.

That's some eyesight you have there. I was working off some of the holiday excess. Nice day for it, although I'll need another few hundred km to get back to pre-holiday weight:o

9:50 am, Grand Canal Cycle Track at The Barge.

You were heading west in full green kit on an MTB- with full face mask? I was heading east on a Dutch bike (no face mask).

It was my first time seeing the green kit in the flesh so didn't realise it was the Boards one until you'd passed my shoulder.

Passed a pink full kit just after Ballsbridge on the road down to the Aviva, I was on the Red Fuji, indicating left down Google St. although I also waved at the same time which may have confused you.

May have been me. Was on a black/grey carrera hybrid- blue helmet/blue baselayer/red backpack & balaclava (thought it was going to be freezing this morning but it wasn't too bad-may have been slightly over prepared... plus may have looked like a robber :pac:
Usually use the track to get down to St James's.
Haven't really seen another boardsie round there yet

Sounds about right. I think the only bit of you not covered was your eyes.

I cycle the Canal Track daily, usually closer to 9 am than 10, but you wouldn't know me as a Boardsie as jerseys aren't my thing. Keep your eyes peeled for the green crate/pink bell/cream tyres combo instead.

Tall chap, pink kit, white armwarmers, white Trek. On the Merrion Rd southbound at around 6pm.

I would have said hello at the lights but I was out of breath from keeping up - you were really motoring!

Pink Kit at the Merrion Centre, just past Vincents Hospital. This morning close to 9.

Gave you a wave while I was fixing a puncture.

Apologies- missed your reply.

It's less cruiser, more traditional- like this.

Upgraded to this.
