    Apologises- you were going too fast the first time for me to say anything & never noticed the second time.

    Its actually a jacket, haven't worn it in a while.
    Wouldn't say there's too many left from the original order.

    I just came on to post that I saw a boards jersey on the R127 at Collinstown at 17.00hrs. Presumably the same rider. (I was in the car).

    Probably 'detones' after looking at Strava.

    Met a Boardsie on Balbriggan road just out of Naul at about 12.05 today. I was a bit slow recognising the jersey, but I gave him a shout out.

    That was me. Your shout woke me out of my trance...

    Nobody has ever accused me of being quiet.

    Black jersey on the Ardclough to Hazelhatch/Celbridge rd, gave a wave and got one back (wearing boards shorts myself today)

    That was me. Saw on Strava Flyby that it was yourself that passed me. Didn't notice your shorts, sorry!

    Guilty as charged. I was in a day dream when you gave a shout and it took me a few seconds to realise it was a Boardsie shout. Apologies.

    2 this morning in the space of 15 mins.

    One at Sutton cross at precisely 9.55 heading towards baldoyle. I was at the lights to go to summit. On a blue and black giant. I didn't say hello, as myself and another cyclist were momentarily dumbstruck by a driver who nearly clipped me by not taking the turn properly and crossing into the bike box.

    Then approx 15 mins later (took me 9to get up the segment) another one spotted under a gilet as they were leaving the summit carpark. Didn't note the bike but said hello.

    My own was hidden under the gilet

    Passed by a bearded Jersey wearer with a yellow helmet coming off the baldoyle end of the greenway this morning just before 9

    Summit guy here... guilty as charged
    there was also another boardsie speeding downhill that I saw who called out to me when I was halfway climbing... probably the same guy you guys saw.

    Bumped into magicbastarder up on the Featherbeds this morning - we were both dressed in the recent pink boards kit. It's so loud there's absolutely no way you'd miss it - very euro ;-).


  • Registered Users Posts: 937 ✭✭✭Luxman


    I do believe I spotted magicB today. Based on recent selfie I think I saw that facial foliage on the Ratoath road just leaving holystown this eve just after 530. Pink top could not distract from such a magnificent beardðŸ˜

    That must have been me! Though I have the beard a good trim last night, you missed it in its full glory.

    Its still one of Eamonnaters fave jersies!


  • Registered Users Posts: 533 ✭✭✭Mr. Cats


    Black jersey going up hill towards Saggart Woods from Athgoe today. I was going opposite direction in black and green jersey. Quick nod to say hello.

    My first jersey sighting!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭Eamonnator


    We met a group this morning somewhere in N.C.D., one of whom was wearing a La Vie Claire jersey.
    I gave him a shout out.
    Anybody from here?


  • Registered Users Posts: 821 ✭✭✭devonp

    It's a retro jersey. Hinault & JF Bernard rode for La Vie Claire back in the 80s.
