    what's a boards jersey

    It's a cycling jersey made by us with the boards.ie logo on it.

    I'm NOT stalking you. Honest.
    I think that counts as me stalking you this morning.

    I wasn't wearing a Boards Jersey so technically I don't exist.

    Someone passed me in a boards jersey/ this morning on an old clunker going from Kimmage to Christ Church. Fecker whoever you are! It's against the rules of physics to cycle an old bike that fast!!!

    Yes, that would have to be the first sighting of me in new jersey, wouldn't it?? Young idiot on his phone. Probably still not aware of what he did.

    Where were you?

    I was cycling behind you, girl in a grey cardi on a single speed. We were kinda playing tag all the way to Raheny :)

    Ah right, didn't register you until I couldn't get back into my pedal at the wooden bridge. Hi anyway.

    Ah sure you were. I had to sit in behind you gasping for a good bit before I could say hello...

    5.30pm this evening in the Phoenix park just past Cabra gate. Emty I think, in old design full kit. I was driving in the same direction (nice and slowly over the ramps) so it was a perfect opportunity to display this.

    I saw keep_her_lit this morning - eastbound along the canal, passing Harold's Cross (where I was waiting at the lights) at about 8.15. No mistaking that bike once you've seen it once! :)

    Coming down off the SE yesterday in the Orwell Randonee I met someone in the new Jersey going up (the easy side!).

    Also met someone in the new Jersey going into Enniskerry yesterday morning around 9. You were telling me about your Audax trips this year. Forgot to ask your name.

    There's an order for short sleeved full zip ones here: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056308378

    Just add your interest to there. Basically someone every now and again suffers putting together an order!

    Spotted about 5 different boardsie jerseys passing through Laragh yesterday on the Orwell Randonnee, too many to remember all the bikes, but I think one was on a blue Planet X? There was a group of us taking a break out in the middle of the grass, as the tables in front of the coffee shop were full.

    Hi Daragh, That was me, glad I just took it easy down to Laragh for cake and back, although it sounds like the Randonee went well. I've the work done now for Paris-Brest-Paris, and just a few easy spins before the start on 21st. Cheers, LG.
