    Reckon I saw Godtabh on his way to Dun Laoghaire again this morning - was in full conversation with another cyclist and only caught sight of the jersey out of the corner of my eye.

    I was down in Dun Laoghaire this morning. Dont remember seeing you but wasnt feeling the best so may not have noticed you

    Was on a red bike with pannier and handlebar bag rather than the white one, and after lingering at the 40ft for a bit too long, had a black merino wool Jersey over my Lycra.

    But chillier out there this morning for sure.

    Yep, few of us head out a couple of times a week - I'd have been in front with the other chap on a Giant road bike, I think.

    And unfortunately... It's a gold SS... :(

    Quite possibly! I was nattering away when I caught a flash of your jersey - will give a proper wave next time!

    Sorry that was me. Heading home left it late and had the headphones in.

    Just missed out on a 30 km/h commute from Sandyford to Swords finished up at 29.8

    :(

    Pink kit spotted heading from Portmarnock to Baldoyle at around 10:40 this morning.

    Was in the car heading the opposite direction so didn't get a shout out I'm afraid!

    Could have been me, depending on the time. Went Blessington, Hollywood, Wicklow Gap, Laragh, Sally Gap, Manor Kilbride and back to Blessington with a group. Think we left Laragh around 12 or a little after, and was on a black Canyon with a black helmet if that narrows it down.

    Green jersey spotted between the Glandon and Croix de Fer. Gave you a shout but there was no hope of catching up to you.

    Did you finish?

    That was me. Thanks for the shout - was in dire need of encouragement at the time!

    I did finish thanks albeit it in a very slow time - heat was killing me up the Glandon but it was way cooler going up the last climb so I felt OK by the end. Hope you got there too!

    That was me, I think I gave a thumbs up and "how's it going". Yes Fluo Green. They were the only colour available when buying I swear :cool: and I needed something that could take a prescription insert

    didn't even think of the Hi-Vis. I'm grand so if if someone tells me off, They're Cuesta Raggio glasses from Ribble. They come with a prescription insert.

    Ah yes, that was me. Good to meet you both! Getting back on the bike after the food stop was not exactly a great advertisement for cycling, a lot of "Why am I doing this?" moments.

    @Swamp3: A recovery spin, I wish! This is my last minute cramming for the Raid!
