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?

If you saw that jersey anywhere from O'Connell bridge to the spire it was me. If however you spotted the jersey from the spire to the ambassador it wasn't me.

It was spotted north of the spire.

Me too. Wasn't the traffic great, roads empty. Lads directing at every junction. I thought it was going to be mental on the roads, so left the car at home. If I wasn't walking, I wouldn't have seen you zoom by.

I propose a new protocol: when you see a boardsie you have to shout "FOUR TEN!" at them.

Hello all! Just reading your board here and I am sure I saw your outfits near the spawell roundabout at the weekend? Looked like there were three of you talking to a couple of guys in blue and white at the junction below the round about?

The jersey style looked like this:

Spotted one coming down the other direction as we were going up the drag on the final lap of our club league race tonight around Blessington lakes. I gave a little wave, Orwell jersey. At least I think I saw a Boards guy coming down, it could have been a hallucination.

That'd be me just out for a quick spin, going the opposite direction around the lakes. Looked like a good turnout, Orwell jersys all over Blessington!
