Yep that was me! Think I regonised you this time without your boardsie kit! Face mask is brilliant-keeps the pollution out and scares walkers and drivers from messing with you!! :pac:

I have seen Orion on spins around Maynooth, but I wasnt aware that there was a few more boardise out that neck of the woods.

Belated Shout Out Hey Boardsie!

wireless lives near me and sullz is a fellow galway cyclist. There's a good few boardsies around - sightings are fairly common.

Rogue-Trooper

Pink Boards shorts (with orange jersey & backpack) spotted yesterday evening around 6:30ish on the cycle path heading towards Sutton/Howth.

Original jersey this morning at 8:36 on Templeogue Rd heading towards Rathgar. Big panier and at least a rear mudguard on what might be a touring bike?

Old MTB frame repurposed into a drop bar commuter.

New style bidshorts with an An Post Rebel Tour Gilet spotted riding down Main Street Ballincollig Cork just now.
Never seen a Boardsie outside Dublin so too shocked to shout out

A bit OT here.... but is that a specific face mask for pollution, or just a buff? I've been curious about them recently, sucking in diesel fumes constantly is probably going to kill me at some stage. Also worried that it'll be sweaty and restrict breathing rather a lot.

Garzard

Green kit cycling up Dame Street (Trinity College direction) around 5:30pm today.

Weepsie

Saw a Boardsie in full new kit coming into Roundwood today at around 10.30 from Enniskerry or Sally Gap. I was on the side of the road checking my directions, gave a shout but they were flying past me

Heya yeah that is a real pollution mask. It's from a company called Respro-you can get them on wiggle or Amazon quite cheap when on offer. I found the same thing -stuck in traffic behind buses sucking in fumes and fumes from people smoking at the lights. Used to be coughing after getting into work but not anymore! Think it's made a real difference and wouldn't go without it now. It has different sizes and made from a soft neoprene material. It takes about a week or 2 to get used to it but definately persist as its worth it in the long run! It's not sweaty and doesn't restrict the breathing that much. Can't wait to have it in winter-no more cold air!

The Black Oil

Approx 7am this morning. Pink jersey, going from Rush into Lusk. Yellow cover on bag/backpack.

Pink jersey, going towards Templeogue last night at about 1830. Boards beep performed.

That was myself on the way to work.

(I was trying out one of those RSA backpack covers. Not overly impressed with it).

I ordered some RSA stuff last year, but they got things mixed up, so I didn't receive one.

Haha, flying is probably an overstatement for what I'd have been doing!! Heard some sort of shout but wasn't sure it was at me sorry! Great first half of spin then got rained on home from Kilcoole. Hope you found your way ok!

godtabh

Saw a green kit on the top of cruagh. Both in boards gear. Got a big shout but I was barely able to talk!

Hani Kosti

You're obviously spending far too much time on Boards.....

Green version seen heading down the Old N1 between Turvey and Lissenhall this evening, I would guess around 6.30

I'd say that was the same Boardsies I saw on his way home around 1800 Terenure this evening. Rolled down the car window to shout out but not sure if he heard me.

That was probably myself Beasty (would have been around 6.15/6.20pm).

Thought it may have been you but I was on the other side of the dual carriageway, then thought it may be the wrong direction for you that time of night - guess there was still time for you to get another 2+ hours in before dark though.....

Undercover Elephant

Hi to the gent in Euro pink, Raheny at 8ish. Glorious morning.

Blowfish

So, after moving back out to the suburbs I'm finally back commuting by bike, but these make it look like I'm getting a lot more miles in than I actually am, these 4 were all me over the space of 2 days:

I heard the boardsie beep and attempted a wave, but missed the shout from Doc07 and half heard a shout from Hani but at the time couldn't figure what was said so didn't know if it was me or the cyclist beside me being yelled to. Apologies for that and, hello

Someone in Howth this afternoon starting on the final dig to the summit carpark at the same time as me.

That was me struggling to get my fat ass up the hill after 2 weeks holiday from the bike and plenty vin rouge and croissants! Chapeau to your clearly superior climbing talent!
