    6pm queuing at the lights on Suir Bridge Dublin. I was in the phalanx of commuters going in the opposite direction.

    What a gorgeous evening for cycling...

    T'was me. Lovely evening. Hard to go home when the hills were calling...

    I think it will count.

    Trips with an average speed higher than 30 km/h AND a maximum speed higher than 45 km/h are not valid for the challenge, thus for the city leaderboard, but only for the statistical leaderboard. The same will be for trips longer than 35 km.

    So if you're average was less than 30km/h it will count - unless I'm completely misinterpreting it.

    Pink jersey heading up the hill towards Sandyford at about 07.15. Tried to say hi, but was distracted by the white van trying some odd and scary lane changing.

    Aha! Apologies, I couldn't hear you entirely properly. I've also caught you on camera on a test run of the GoPro I got for free. Don't worry, I won't be sticking it up anywhere :)

    Thought it might be yourself Seamus as I know you're local.

    That was myself - nice meeting you! Cheers for stopping to chat. How did you get on yesterday?

    I might take you up on your spin invitation tomorrow if it's still going? ;)

    Boardsie in a pink jersey went by me and my neighbour between Newcastle and Kilcoole, northbound. This afternoon, in around 1pm. We were just ambling along in self content having done 100k, so didn't have the wherewithal to shout! Or the breath, for that matter.

    Yep - that was me. I was looking for somewhere to have a sandwich and a cuppa. The harbour was fairly packed so I went back to Olive Deli where I had a very tasty Ploughmans sambo with ciabatta. Tasty.

    Mrs WA is always suggesting I go there but it doesn't really make sense as it only 5k from my door. Seems very popular with cyclists all the same.

    I can see why it's popular. The food and service is excellent. It'd be a nice spot to meet the Mrs. at the end of a spin.

    It was packed yesterday although I was the only cyclist.

    Green kit spotted in Phibsborough this morning heading towards the city centre at 8:10.

    I didn't get a chance to shout as I spotted you between trucks & busses. Anyway, I doubt you'd have heard me over the traffic noise as I was on the other side of the road heading north.

    That was me ! :) Running late as I only remembered my workshirt was still on its hanger as I passed thru Glasnevin Industrial Estate :eek: and had to cycle home to add a few kms onto my commute.

    Nice morning for it mind !
