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?

Long sleeve board jersey coming down the military road towards Rathfarnham, about 11:30 yesterday. In short sleeves myself for the first time this year, stunning weather for a spin.

Me all right. I caught the shout of "Boardsie" just as we passed, and gave a wave at your back. Been meeting IM along there for ages now.

'thought it was you alright. We met when Cramcycle was handing out the jerseys in Airside a year or two ago.

First 100k of the year. Using the red wine recovery method at the moment. Legs starting to feel a lot better.

Um, I should probably mention I was descending at the time. Overtaking anyone while climbing is just not my style...

No, that was me, I didn't go to Laragh. I wish I was that quick. Bloody headwind up Glencree was a nightmare.

Oh, and if I looked like I was talking to myself, I was actually on the phone...honest.

That was probably me. I had sleeve warmers and gloves on at the start of the journey, but took them off in Santry.

...I mean, I cycle in short sleeves year round, no matter what the temperature. HTFU!

whoop, sighting! 11.20, you were heading along the coast road to Howth (a little bit before the crossroads at the Marine hotel) with a gang of four, maybe five.

I waved, but I don't think you saw me. I AM MORTALLY OFFENDED

Quite a stalkerish day.

Spotted a new jersey around Edenvale Road just as we were setting off this morning. Paths crossed again (in opposite directions) around Tibradden, then spotted and hello's exchanged again on Edenvale Road at 12ish.
