    It keeps me wondering who is this dedicated cyclist not minding the elements he's out there when it pours or dark or both at the same time. Can be seen on Kilkenny to Freshford road or N76 Ballyragget to Killkenny. I've overtaken him a good few times on my commuting. Fair play to him for hitting the road in pitch dark I wouldn't have the balls to do that (one day maybe?). I felt sorry for him this morning 7:40am, heading to Freshford in a p1ssing rain! He's got some headlight too looks like a motorbike. Anyone know him?

    And a big respect to all of the boardsies as well who are out there battling the weather these days!! Keep up the good work and safe journey!

    Since I ditched the company van, cycling has being my sole means of transport ( unless I'm with the kids). There's a shower in work, with the correct gear you don't really mind the conditions.
    I find a headwind much worse than rain. I've yet to set out with ground frost. That's when I "may" get the Dart....

    Probably Jim Fitzpatrick he works in Theecastles, there was a write up about him in Barry Mehans cycling blog a while back doing the race around Ireland. Hardcore and respect!
