This morning cycling through Ranelagh/ Clonskeagh a resplendent looking pink and black boards jersey (with matching pink socks), all I could think to say was 'Nice top'. You looked like you were lucky enough to be heading out for the day?

That was me - as i wasn't totally awake, it took me a bit to process what you said; thanks! Not quite the full day as I had to be back by 12.00 - but lovely down in Wicklow.

If he had a beard and orange shoes then it was myself, sorry I didn't hear the hello. I was keeping an eye on the hipster messing with his phone while hands free.

Saw a green jersey on the way down from Howth today at about 12. I was going the other way (shamefully in a car though!). Didn't beep or anything as you were pretty much level with me before I copped the jersey.

Was spotted at grand canal this evening after 6 by another Boardsie. Apologies for not speaking louder-through my thick Northern accent and being out of breath I was difficult to understand! Think that's only the 3rd other Boardsie I've seen/spoke with round there

Did I spy someone atop Howth this evening? Didn't cross paths, but saw what looked like the black kit pulled over near the Summit.

Two sightings today:

First: A tired boardsie taking a break halfway between the Sally Gap and Laragh around 2:45.

Second: Heading for the hills from Dundrum at the mint around 7:30ish?

Shouted greetings to both.

Five weeks later(!) I get around to checking this thread. I think that was me at the mint, indeed on the way to the hills for a few quick climbs.

Cdaly in Roundwood @7:30am. this morning. Doing the REK 400 Audax, good number passed through, about 30 he reckoned. Nice day for it.........and night.

Passed by a Boardsie in orange/grey kit flying up the steep section above Lough Bray heading for Sally Gap this morning. I was barely managing to stay upright, said Boardsie flew past me. Good going.

I was one of the hoardes heading for local hostelry in search of refreshment after an afternoon of keeping up with a three year old hyped up on sugar:-)

Nice meeting you anyway! Today was my first time cycling wearing Boards gear and immediately noticed getting a lot more nods, waves etc from other passing cyclists and cars than from before! :P

I think I saw a green jersey hiding under a gilet near the single line Liffey bridge (whatever it's called) between Sally Gap and Manor Kilbride today at 11AM. Said hello, but only spotted the sleeves as I passed, so I don't know if my "boardsie!" was heard.

NeedMoreGears

Saw a very fit looking Jimm in Laragh today in the original jersey. Nice chat at the hippy cafe.
