    Green jersey and shorts at Terenure around 1830. I was stopped at lights about to turn for Rathfarnum. Rolled down window and shouted 'Boardsie' but I think you had headphones on. I think some people at the crossroads thought I was shouting abuse at a cyclist! My wife in the passenger seat was a little embarrassed.

    That may have been me again. Twice in an hour is a first for me. Were you at the lights where the with Rathgar high school meets main road between terenure and rathfarnham?

    He probably gets paid for cycling - must be a fairly big incentive!

    An incentive which I hope to acquire some day.. :o

    What's worse is that he did the three big climbs (Bohar/Cruagh etc) up to the featherbeds three times..the third time was when he passed me I think and did it 14 seconds off his KOM..and 25 seconds faster than 2nd place..

    The dude is a machine, as badly as he threw me out the back door it was cool to watch :pac:

    I was the non-bearded! I think I let a shout out to both jerseys I saw but got lost in the wind.

    I was the "bearded" - sorry wasn't too talkative, a "late night" and the wind were really taking it out of me.

    2 sightings within 10 mins this evening:

    7.35pm - full new pink/green kit heading towards Portmarnock from Baldoyle. I gave you a wave and a shout but you had your head buried so I don't think you saw/heard me.

    7.45pm - Dermot Illogical in full pink splendour heading outbound on the Clontarf/Sutton track.

    Yup!

    (I only spotted you at the last minute as I was busy concentrating on errant pedestrians and child cyclists).

    Passed by someone in a pink kit going up the Cruagh Road just under an hour ago. Looked like you were enjoying the cycle. [I was in the silver Mazda].

    That was me. I'm very rarely in the country, but I do seem to manage to run into Boardsies when I am :)

    I was enjoying it. Best cure for the stress I take home with me from work is climbing Cruagh road out of the saddle grinning like a half-wit.

    Both could have been me, I wore the green kit a couple of days last week cos it's a heavier jersey. If it was MTB shorts riding a black tank, then it's me.

    Yellow bike and a rather hefty backpack? If so might have been me.

    Was one of them Thursday? You've just reminded me that I saw a green kit heading up past Rathmines Garda Station at 6:27 pm last Thursday. Helmet, shades, bristly chin, unbranded black bike with drops? I was waiting to cross the road at the bottom of Rathmines Road Upper just beside Tesco, on foot and pushing my tank with a crate full of groceries.

    ('That's not a tank, this is a tank.' :))
