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

Just after my climbing and descending of Wicklow Gap, which felt like Monte Zoncolan to me!! That double espresso went down well.


Nice meeting you again NMG.

Blanked by a pink jersey near Kilcock at around 11am this morning.

Poor form as I was wearing my own pink jersey, I want this person found and banned please. We can do that, right?

Only one of the two Boardsies involved is known to us at this stage Dirk. However I'm happy to ban you if you think it's warranted ....

Thanks for waiting but it took a while to get up that hill and once I got to the top I put the jacket back on.
Decided to walk as wasn't getting enough recognition for wearing the jersey when I was slowly dying. My own fault as took a long turn on a pace line just before the first of the 3 climbs and was pretty wasted by the time I got to the bottom of that climb.

The last 30 k was the most enjoyable part of the day with the sun out and only little ramps that I could manage.

nice to meet you today man, I think everybody was dying at that point the weather took a toll on all of us was just cold and miserable 80% of the time. Trust me there is so many times that I wanted to get off myself but I would be left behind by my groupmates so just had to solder on..... you know your right with the last 30 kms it was just nice;-).... got into a group of guys with somebody from lucan cycling club leading it it was just brilliant made the last 30 much much easier and faster:p again congratulations see ya next year:cool:

Saw a chap going down Washington St around 1pm yesterday. I was queueing for a hangover brunch outside Liberty Grill, by the time it registered in my brain you were well gone!

Green Boards jersey stopped at lights along the canal at Rathmines bridge.
I have now learnt what to say when pulling up alongside.

Someone crossed in front of me last night around 6:20, short sleeve pink jersey. Grand canal st lower, heading south over the canal.

Just before the lorry overtook? Was myself heading towards Glendalough. Great day for a cycle.

Yeah, lovely day for it. Wish I'd taken a second bottle with me.

For some reason I tend to drink little on cycles, mostly before leaving instead. Managed 60k today and came back with the bottle I took still nearly full. My main problem today was getting clipped in the face by wasps and flies - going downhill at speed without glasses in this weather, insects alone can make it really bloody dangerous!

Got a wave from someone in the original jersey just after I turned onto Green Isle road around 6:30 this evening. Sorry, sun was in my eyes so only copped you at the last minute and barely managed a nod and a "Howya"

Green jersey coming down the Sally Gap earlier (yellow/black bike I think), shouted boardsie but I don't think you heard me. You also looked way too happy going down the descent :pac:

That was me, about 2 minutes after I went by Garzard. I did hear your shout, but I didn't realise I looked happy Maybe I was glad my brakes were working.

Wishbone Ash

Forgot to mention that I got a "Boardsie" shout on Dawson Street on Wednesday morning circa 10am. I looked back but couldn't identify where it came from.

Yeah, I usually pass that spot heading for Thurs. club training at around the same time you're heading up to Corkagh Park.
