    That would probably be me or Dirk yes. I commute daily from n11, unfortunately.


    Commute from Stillorgan to Leeson St. daily also, but rarely in Boards stuff. Only have the one boards jersey anyway.

    That would have been me all right. I work in Sandyford; often cycle out to Enniskerry and back on my lunch break. Do a loop around by Johnny Foxes when I have gears.

    Standard hour, the ride is 21km and takes around 45 mins with stopping at lights, average around 30km/h moving speed.

    Thats a handy lunchtime set-up.

    BTW have you any 10 speed shifters(Shim) lying around. Cheeky to ask I know.

    So, what we know about Blorg so far is that he doesn't sleep, he clearly doesn't eat (his lunch anyway), his skin is constructed of some kind of lycra/neoprene blend which means he never has to change into or out of clothes, and the only time he's *not* cycling is when he's in work. And even then he's probably on a turbo trainer.

    Having seen Tunney recently I should say that his idea of over weight may not be the cycling forums idea of overweight.

    @Tunney. Welcome to my world fatman.
    Just to get you into the groove, they do. A lovely slice of cake in the hippy cafe in Laragh.

    My first Boards jersey of 2010 spotted this morning on the Alfie Byrne Road Bike Path heading towards Clontarf...

    Is it wrong that I noticed the very nice and shiny blue Planet X bike before the jersey :D

    Wasn't jealous at all...was tempted to abandon the walk to/and work for a day out on my bike :o

    That was me! Yes, it is nice and shiny for now, I don't expect that to last.

    EDIT: @Raam: You passed me going the other way, don't try and take that as a win. Was that a Contador pistol salute you gave me? Probably better than the girly wave I gave you in return. And I wasn't wheel sucking, he was my lead out train.

    Yeah I totally finger-banged you. Gave it a double barrel though.
