    I'm still wearing shorts for both cycling and running at this time of year, :)

    Same here, it's not gotten that bad yet has it?

    I've been using leg warmers for the last two weeks. I was a bit warm on a couple of days though.

    No where near cold enough yet, went for a run yesterday and found it awful warm for this time of year. But then I;m a pretty warm person even when its cold.

    I'm curious how long I;ll get away with shorts

    Out on my first spin with my boards.ie jersey tomorrow :)

    Yep. You weren't exactly perky taking off from the lights. I think you muttered darkly or some such. ;)

    I saw cdaly again this morning. Same location as last time: at the traffic lights on the junction of Griffith Avenue and Mobhi Road. I'm glad to say I was on my bike rather in a car with a bike on the back this time. I see you have your limbs covered now...

    Long-sleeve old jersey all the way in from Blackrock, along Sandymount, through Ringsend this morning about 7.30/7.45. Must have passed/gotten passed 3 or 4 times while meandering along in the car!

    Sounds like me. I was having a go-slow day and the lights were (unusually enough) mostly in my favour which turned the commute into a suprisingly pleasant early morning cruise.

    Passed a boards jersey wearer in Naul heading up the hill to Ballyboughal yesterday around half 5 or thereabouts. It was some day out there yesterday afternoon / early evening! Short sleeves and legs all the way! Same today in a couple of hours! Say hi if you see me in a black n orange hi-mountain top!

    I was cycling away from Ballsbridge along the Merrion Road this morning at about 8.30 and saw a new jersey cycling inbound. Not too far from the British embassy. Eye contact was made but I didn't have enough time to compute and blink 'hello', much less do a wave :)

    Possibly a 2nd one in the background 2/3 seconds before your sighting?

    Last Saturday at about 11.45, I was driving the car that had to stop to let you cycle across a pedestrian crossing that you didn't check for traffic on at the entrance to Corke Abbey :p

    Also yesterday evening at about 6.15 as I was coming onto the N11 Cabinteely bypass from Johnstown Rd.

    I always check to see are cyclists wearing a boards shirt and didn't see any until this week!

    Watched the vid... cool to see the boards sighting, but I couldn't help but squirm and laugh at the big arse that obstructs the cam's view about 1min into the clip... Lycra has a lot to answer for!!!

    Original Jersey. Junction of Ailesbury Road and Merrion Road around 8.30. I managed a wavelike gesture at the last minute.

    I maybe saw Needmoregears* powering north out of Baldoyle at about 6.15 this evening. Dunno was he in a boards jersey 'cos he was entirely hi-vis clad...



    * or maybe somebody else entirely...

    'twas me alright. Had the boards jersey under the hi-vis. As for "powering" - you're most kind:)

    Where were you? Sorry if I didn't spot you but the old glasses don't have night vision
