    I just opened my long-sleeve packet yesterday. Are the sleeves meant to be loose? All the other long sleeves I have are skintight.

    Edit: No foreskin jokes please.

    i have a XS Long sleeve jersey and the sleeve are indeed loose.

    Is there a special beep? If so what is it?

    Standard honk for a Boards sighting...
    :D

    That would turn my saddle brown.

    Thought it was just me with my puny arm muscles. They are quite baggy.

    If I took the jersey to a clothes alteration place would they be able to do anything with it? I suspect they don't deal with bicycle jerseys much.

    full boardsie gear @12ish this morning coming around a narrow corner between blessington and sally gap region. I gave a great big wave but I was in Orwell gear so probably just looked like a lunatic :)

    Saw a Jersey heading into Balinastoe wood yesterday morning about 10:00. White (ish) bike if I remember correctly but there was a group.

    Hello to you too.

    Whoever I saw was on a dark coloured bike. I was wearing black and nodded hello.

    Couldn't have been me - acid green olmo steel frame - to go with my dancing days.

    I was doing laps on the lance loop though - last week and saw another boardie
    and we both pointer to our jerseys and punched the air. - Was that you Tom ?

    Saw somebody climbing Glasnevin Hill just now (10:30) on a.... bike.

    I was coming off Ballymun road at Met Eireann on a Giant hybrid. Shouted but I don't think he noticed me...

    If it was a white Specialized Langster, it was me. I did see someone there at Met Eireann but I didn't hear anything.

    Finally spotted!!

    Woo! Two in the one day...

    Got a nod from somebody on the Clontarf psycho-path around Bayside. I was in red gloves, yellow top on the aerobars chasing the feller in the green An Post jersey who whizzed by me when I was already flat-out in a tailwind.

    Barely managed to twitch a nod back...

    That was possibly me; there were at least two An Post jerseys out that direction... or possibly the same guy doing very fast circuits? :p

    Think I may have seen Lumen in disguise at the junction of Patrick st and Upper Kevin st near Patrick's cathedral???

    Probably, that's my route and there aren't many red Planet-X's around. I have not yet felt myself worthy of a boards jersey.

    That was me. I work in Finglas Village and had to go over to our other office in town. That's twice I got spotted on that journey.

    Saw somebody on the Morehampton road around 9am today in black tights. I was turning right so didn't get very close.


  • Registered Users Posts: 179 ✭✭Robertd_07


    Do shorts count?
    If so, Phoenix Park, passing the polo grounds, 7:15 or so last night, heading for town.
    Same guy on Wednesday morning at the juction of Queen Street and Ellis Quay.

    Where were you when we needed a lift back from the gap!!!

    It was not nice weather at all. Good beeping though, definitely able to distinguish between the friendly "pip-pip" and the angry honk.


  • Registered Users Posts: 256 ✭✭happy_acid_face


    Saw a boards jersey today on the coast road in Clontarf at about six-ish.

    Another possible was a guy on a Planet X bike at around the same time...
