New style jersey, with Caisse d'Epargne shorts, cycling the wrong way up Harcourt St yesterday.

Saw someone in original Boards Jersey stopped at the lights on Lincon Place (just at the top of Westland Row) at about 4.40pm today.

Spotted a new Boards jersey on Gardiner Street this morning at about 8.20.

I think he was cycling a titanium bike (maybe an Enigma)

Wahoo! The old jersey must be more visible than the new one. Spotted two weeks in a row.

Twenty minutes later you could have spotted me in a heap on the clontarf cycle path after a collision with a car. Bike & everyone ok (for now at least) thank God but shoulder still quite sore/stiff.

I know what you're going through, you come home after a long spin through Kilkenny, Carlow, Kildare and Laois, you see BJS unread, could it be me this time? Sighting quays this morning, awwww shucks. Later that evening it's marked unread again, saw one up the Sally Gap and waved hello, FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

Yikes! Which bit? I had one driver cross in front of me into the carpark at the bus garage. Saw us coming, slowed and then sailed on in front of us anyway... :mad:

Lusk Doyle · 29-04-2011 12:51pm

Saw a swords rider yesterday at Turvey commercial estate yesterday evening at approx 7:10pm. Beeped at him to say hi and from the bemused look around he gave I knew he was like "who is that!?!".

Anyway, if it was you and you saw me in my white ford fiesta van with writing all over it - I was just saying hi to a fellow club member!!!

Seaswimmer · 29-04-2011 1:00pm

Last night heading down into Drumcondra from Whitehall about 17:45. White and red boards jersey. Stopped at lights at junction of richmond road where iwent left and he went straight...

Yeah - the exact same spot. Heading towards Howth. There are STOP signs at all the crossing locations into and out of that car park but.......

For once I was grateful for the headwind against me, although I slow quite a bit when going through that section anyway

Shoulder better today after good nights sleep.

^^^ Needmoregears again this morning.

I think I saw thetaxman at the Ballyboden Road/Taylor's Lane roundabout last night too, wearing an anpost jersey though, does that count?

Highway_To_Hell · 29-04-2011 1:29pm

think I passed Seamus this morning - around 8am on the Ballycullen rd.

Black bike fixed wheel?

Yes. The way the legs were spinning going down the hill past the regency hotel it looked liked fixed wheel. I think there was also someone else ahead of us in strange green shorts!!!

Yep, later than usual. Myself and the wife had difficulty dragging ourselves out of bed before 7:45. Of course it's my fault because she assumed it was still early because I hadn't gotten up yet :rolleyes:

LOL that was me alright. My bike is Seriously under geared ATM. Were you single speed yourself sporting a Brooks saddle?

Spotted a boards jersey about to tackle Lugnakuilla yesterday late morning in a group of three

daragh_ · 01-05-2011 7:48pm

New Jersey heading north on the N11 just after Cherrywood. 2:20 roughly. No helmet and with one other rider.

velo.2010 · 01-05-2011 9:20pm

Today. Saw and 'beeped' two lads in the new jersey as they headed up the Wicklow Gap from the Holywood side. They had a chap in a Carrera top for company.

Also me, a bit later in the spin, mere moment from a nice hot shower by then

I also spotted Seamus (for a few hours) today

Kav0777 · 02-05-2011 11:25pm

Old boards jersey coming out of enniskerry heading toward stepaside as I was heading in late on saturday morning. I gave a slightly over enthusiastic "boardsie" yell.

Diarmuid · 02-05-2011 11:37pm

Full new kit heading up Military Road from Glencree side. Passed you at about 3:40. I was in the Skil kit.

If that heading was back to town that could have been me suffering on a black Dolan. Was that a motor on your rear hub or one of those measuring yokes?

yeah that was me. Powertap on the rear hub. Did a spin to Laragh and back over Sally Gap. Brutal headwind on the way back

Sure was, did Laragh then Wicklow Gap feeling incredibly strong (i.e. tailwind), but coming back Blessington side of Sally Gap had to pay the piper and came the closest yet to losing my lunch through exertion.
