    Spotted a boardsie (new jersey) in a big group climbing up Military road some time between 10am and 11am today. Just about managed to get a 'Hi' out of myself while going the other way.

    Spotted a boardsie on Cruagh Road heading uphill around 2 or 3 last Saturday. Gave a awkward salute. I believe it was the same boardsie I've seen previously when I was coming down Wicklow Gap.

    Saw one coming out of Cloyne yesterday morning as I was in a long line of cars heading to Ballycotton.

    Probably myself bringing my hangover over the sally gap in an attempt to shake it off. Fantastic day out.

    Boards shorts spotted on a rider this morning heading up the Rathbeale Road in Swords. Not sure if he was wearing the jersey as he had a rain jacket on.

    Some chilly looking guy just past the Omni Centre around 1:15 heading away from the city. Had a bag in one hand and on the phone with the other so you may have missed my subtle finger in the air and nod.

    Heading south on the Blackrock by-pass, I'm ashamed to admit that I saw you from the car having signed up to the wimp list today.

    You were going well against the blizzard.

    Might have been me (old design jacket?). Blackrock bypass, where is that?

    If it was me, I was actually fine except I left my clear lenses at home so I couldn't see a damn thing with all the snow hitting my eyes. Roads were fine.

    Missed a spectacular photo opportunity at Booterstown Avenue as the sun made a rare appearance through some heavy snow, looked amazing.

    New jersey (long sleeve) spotted doing the Orwell Pine Forest TT this evening.

    I was at the finish enjoying the suffering of others for a change, my son seemed to like it quite well, too. :D

    Old jersey and shorts descending Edmondstown road this evening (6:30ish), managed to gasp out a 'Hey Boardsie' (I was heading the other way, huffing and puffing).

    Old jersey on coachford bridge about half 6 this evening didn't even recognise it until I was at the other side of the bridge. Don't see many jerseys out this neck of the woods

    Sounds like me :) I'd my head down, but I do remember a couple of cyclists that seemed to appear out of nowhere and passing me at speed going with the wind. I wasn't jealous, honest :p

    I think I've spotted you about four times now, except I'm on a different bike each time. I'm going to give you the finger next time, then you'll know who it is. ;)

    Hardly seen any boards jerseys yet this year. Even my own are lurking in a drawer awaiting the summer.

    Dermot Illogical this morning doing his David Gilmour impression flying down the Malahide Road as I struggled manfully up...

    Boardsie who managed a dramatic disrobe of a high viz to reveal a new boardsie top, descending from the viewing point towards Glengree about an hour ago. Also me Eoin1984 and Dipsomaniac at different points on the Military road.

    Ah t'was yourself. A couple of viscous ramps in that run, the cunard back to military road section has to be one of most evil climbs out there. I ended up with my first foray up the wall this year, which did me no good whatsoever. Seriously need to consider dropping some pounds.
