Spotted a pink jersey in Wellington Bridge around 2pm today, said hello

Myself on my way from wexford on a hired hybrid. Not my favourite road or bike but the weather made up for it today

Boards jersey with a group (Laois CTC?) between Athy and Stradbally, I was one of the trio fixing a puncture in a field gate.

Ah I wondered who you were. Spotted you as well smacl. Gave you a shout, between wellington bridge and ramsgrange, about 11:15. So surprised to see a jersey I nearly forgot to give a shout .

Spotted a pink jersey perched outside McDonald's by the Athlone by-pass Saturday at around 6pm. He looked like he was enjoying his meal so I didn't want to disturb the man

Pink jersey spotted heading through Baldoyle just after midday.

Waiting at the bus stop, must have crossed 30 seconds before you passed, just as that 145 pulled out on you! Noticed the jersey then the bike, but you seem to like that route

Did you give a shout? I thought I heard a "Boardsie!" just as someone passed.

BTW it's a Defy, not a Carrera, and a neck gaiter, not a scarf By keeping the wind out of my ears and my face warm I was able to ignore my wet feet for a bit...

Lovely day for it, I wonder why no one else was around :pac:

Yup shouted Boardsie and looked back to see if you had heard me Was paying attention to the road as it was a bit dodgy at 50km/h+, jersey only clicked as we were roughly side by side!

Noted. And noted. :pac:

Indeed it was, absolutely glorious rain and wind..relentless!

Saw one Boardsie nearly collect a face-full of VW Golf as the car swung a badly timed right hook across him on Northumberland Road this morning. Only saw the bright green "Four Ten" down his flank as he had passed by. First time I've seen one of these jerseys in the wild. No shout, but, in fairness, if I had called out he probably would have ended up closer to disaster than he already was!

Hmmmm.....I was on Northhumberland Road in the green kit this morning (on a red/black Ridley) around 9.15/9.30ish but don't recall an incident with a VW. I did get up close and personal with a Merc though. Perhaps there was another Boardsie in the vicinity.

I've seen Wizardej so often lately that I don't harass him by shouting things from the Internetz.

I was about there this morning and had a few close calls but not sure if one was a VW (was wearing blue helmet, red black tights)

Yeah I've been out and about a bit!

Boardsie flew passed me northbound on Swords bypass about 1.30 . You were way gone before I even recognised the jersey.

Pink jersey on a hybrid [?] cycling into Rathmines from over the canal around 18:25. Would've given the shout had I noticed you earlier.

@Wizardej do you ever wash that Jersey!

I stand corrected. (I've only ever seen a first edition at a distance and they seem to be getting very scarce).

I've actually never seen a first edition in the flesh either. Always kick myself for not getting one when they appear on the adverts forum.

Green jersey passing the Ordnance Survey HQ in the Phoenix Park around 9am this morning. Only saw a sleeve, wearing a gilet perhaps?
