Boards Jersey Sightings

RacoonQueen

New jersey by 2 cycling in opposite directions up the Acres road in the Phoenix Park just before 8 this evening, one bearded chappie and one not bearded chappie. Think you gave each other a shout. Was going to shout at yee but was with the running club and don't want them stalking me on here.

Was running down towards St. Mary's on the opposite side to where the race was on.

That was me not bearded. Had great fun zipping around the Dublin Staff Relay run course shouting support at my colleagues. Met caroline_ie and a bearded boardsie (twice) and got a shout from one of the competitors...

T'was myself and my big sister munching flapjacks and planning some blueberry picking in the autumn. I heard a 'hi boardsie' as you sped by in your old boards kit.

Past loads of boardsies this morning mixture of in boards jersey or other one. Think you must all have been doing that Mick Byrne cycle? I had come down from Sally Gap and was going along Djouce as I passed most of you/them. What a day for a cycle!

Gave a couple of bips as I passed who I think was DirkVoodoo climbing Ballinascorney around 4:20

Beardie boardsie yesterday heading south on the Military Road towards the Sally Gap. I was heading in the opposite direction into a very brisk wind. Fantastic day.

Who is Sally and why do you assume we know which one of whom you speak?!?

Probably myself. Someone else caught me coughing my lungs up napping just before cruagh. Overtook him passing Cruagh but he took me again as I admired the view on the way up to Glendalough. Whoever you are I think I nearly caught ya again climbing Sally but I lost you on the flat and downhills.

Sore arms tonight from that sun. So many short stop offs today. Just kept wanting to get off and stare into the distance. The hills are so much prettier on days like today, like a completely different world to the area thats normally bathed in hail, rain and wind.

I was coming the opposite direction so didn't actually overtake you. In a UCD jersey with another guy between Glenmacnass and the Sally Gap.

Definitely me so I remember the UCD jersey. It always feels great to be going downhill when you see other people going up.

New jersey on a giant passing Portobello Bridge along the canal in Harolds X direction @ 17.50 today

I'm getting a bit fed up reading about cdaly being spotted on the Clontarf cycle track, or daragh on the Rock Rd. etc, etc, etc, so I think it's time for a bit more ambition among Boardsies.

With so many big events coming up, Euro's, TDF, Olympic Games, etc. who's going to be spotted in the jersey at one of them?

IIRC we had one of our (senior) mods spotted down under with the Ashes, so come on people, let's aim for that standard of greatness.

Any other suggestions welcome. Cover of Hello magazine perhaps?

Edit: Of course, no offence intended towards cdaly or daragh!!!!

Good idea!
Q music magazine used to have something similar where readers would send in photos of themselves reading the magazine in unusual or exotic locations.

Be careful. The hair may be the source of your power.
