guy with a white beard.

Like, you mean, Gandalf in the boards kit? Nice...

Another sighting of the greater spotted WA in the pink kit in Santry this morning around 8:30. I got the wave in at the last second.

cython · 01-02-2017 1:30pm

Belated spotting of a Boardsie in green jersey in Castleknock at about 7pm on Monday evening, heading towards Blanchardstown.

CramCycle · 01-02-2017 1:56pm

Belated here as well, seen one in the wilds of Stillorgan almost two weeks ago. Crossing the N11 heading into Stillorgan. I was going to shout, then thought that would be weird. Instead you just got me staring at you and half waving before scurring away.

Has anyone spotted a Madison Genesis bottle user yet

Saw darragh_o this morning turning on to the canal around 8:50 on a bike that still gives me nightmares from various Evil trips.

No boards jersey though

It's too cold for my Boards Jersey! Sorry I didn't see you. Pre-Coffee

On the good bike today as my Winter bike is banjaxed after all the salt and grit. I've been riding my cross bike a good bit but I really need to put slicks on it.

godtabh · 15-02-2017 10:53am

You would have been too far away to hear anything. I recognized the bike before I recognized you. Says a lot about the bike

Saw boards shorts wearer ( I think, with leg warmers) around 10.45 heading from Lusk towards Blakes Cross. I was heading towards Lusk on an all black bike

That was myself with seriously mismatched kit (Boards green bibs with a red and white jacket) on the way to work.

(Normally I'm commuting in the dark so no one can spot my wardrobe imperfections!)

I somehow thought it might be you, as you're the only person I seem to meet at the times when I'm out :pac:

Spotted someone in the green kit climbing Howth from the cemetery side at ~14:45 today.

ED E · 23-02-2017 2:02pm

Think I just saw the old jersey outside the old orchard pub.

Wishbone Ash · 28-02-2017 4:44pm

Mercian Pro in the Pink/Green near Duleek this morning.

Hard to miss given you were sitting opposite me in Sage & Stone:p

arybvtcw0eolkf · 18-03-2017 4:15pm

13:00 today in Howth (harbour road).

We were cycling in opposite directions, I was wearing a hi-viz top and gave the obligatory BOARDSIE shout ~ I think I scared the poor sod lol

sullivlo · 19-03-2017 4:08pm

A boardsie overtook our group spin today. We shouted but couldn't hear your response over the wind.

Around Enfield at 11.30ish I think

That was me. Shouted back but the wind wasn't going to help

PS what group was it? Was there a crash?

Galway Cycle/Mayn't Students for Charity. We were split into two groups to make it easier for cars to overtake us. Think there was a crash in the second group alright. We were group one and I was the windbreaker on the inside when you passed.

I heard female voice shouting boardsie and a male voice asking my user name. I shouted back but due to a stiff neck wasnt able to turn around.

That was a good cycle. I saw some one on strava who was saying there was a crash and she had to get the bus home

robyntmorton · 19-03-2017 8:37pm

I thought I saw a Boards Jersey on the road earlier. Now I know it was Godtabh!

I was in the second GC group, the one behind Sullivlo, both enjoying myself and thinking I was out of my mind!

Comma · 19-03-2017 10:08pm

Wishbone Ash looked good in his Boardsie gear today, on a wet and windy spin to Maynooth.

It would have been around 11.30am - noon. There were about 15 of us.

I was a bit later than that

Garzard · 23-03-2017 11:24pm

Caught a quick glance of two cyclists tonight at 8:30pm, one wearing what looked like the pink kit on the Scholarstown Road.

smacl · 25-03-2017 6:16pm

Exchanged a 'Hi Boardsie' with a chap in a SS green jersey on the Military road this afternoon. I was overheated fool who thought the long sleeved pink winter boards gear with base layers would work today.

Mercian Pro · 25-03-2017 6:29pm

As well as the gang on the Hill Climb, WA & I spotted a Boardsie in a pink jersey climbing the Wicklow Gap as we descended towards Hollywood. Shouted but we were travelling too fast to hear if it was acknowledged!

T'was myself heading towards SG and Lough Tay after. Great day for it! Started the cycle wearing a base layer underneath the jersey but changed out of it a while beforehand after passing Viewpoint - began to overheat myself while wearing it on the uphill stages :pac:

Myself, I shouted a response but you were long gone!

godtabh · 28-03-2017 8:52am

I think I saw some one going over Lesson St Bridge just there. He was in traffic so hard To be100% but looked like the current shorts

Weepsie · 29-03-2017 8:42pm

Saw a full kitted boardsie this morning on a Tifosi in the IFSC. I was half jogging in a rush and think I startled them

Twas I

That's quite the Audax beard you're cultivating there.

Apologies if I wasn't quite with it, not feeling very well today.

Weepsie · 29-03-2017 10:52pm

Yes it is. It's growing because I'm too lazy and it can be worked into fundraising for a charity cycle I'm doing somehow.

I was trying to figure out if you were in a building I'm occasionally in for meetings

Might have been me! I was wearing the shorts with the pink, green and white stripes and would have been crossing the bridge then.

Yo! I probably wasn't moving terribly quick in that wind! Topped 45km/h on the way home on the singlespeed however!!

NeedMoreGears · 03-04-2017 1:29pm

Friday 31st March around 1230 - pink kit heading north on Alfie Byrne road just after the turn off East Wall road. I gave a shout and got a wave from a beardy boardsie.

Yep, that was me on our 'Healthy Workplace Day' lunchtime spin out to Howth. Figured a wave was safest as I couldn't figure out where the shout came from!

spotted someone coming down from Kippure mast on sunday!
