    Gave an on-foot Donal a wave this morning!

    Wasn't sure if that was you or not, then I saw the Focus Cayo. Thanks for the wave!

    Funny though, haven't been spotted in months and then I get spotted when off the bike.

    Same bat time:D

    Sorry I didn't say more of a hello this morning. The asshole in the A4 (sorry if they're a friend/colleague!) was taking up a large percentage of my concentration when they tried to lash past me and then jammed on the brakes just after passing me while indicating left to pull in, and then seemingly inviting me to undertake them. No thanks!

    You're grand, at this rate sure I'll see ya tomorrow.

    Didn't see the A4 driver do that actually, few different companies here so could be someone I know or not.

    I tooted at you just before we turned into Marlborough Street.

    I was all out of white socks this morning. :( Well, one pair, but I'm saving those for a non-commute spin!

    I heard the toot, but didn't realise it was intended for me. Thanks! I actually thought someone was beeping at you for daring to slow down and let me through instead of swerving across my path! :P

    tried to do three quick "bips" but it was the wife's car so not as used to it as on my own.

    Wife was mortified that I was tooting at complete strangers!

    Spotted someone out of the corner of my eye this morning with boards arm warmers on (it's bloody roasting out you looper). Turning onto the Ballycullen Rd from Firhouse Rd at 11am.

    Possibly me heading to the WW200. It was about that point where I managed to snap a gear cable. Not fun.

    Rear one. Thankfully there was a mechanic who had set up shop in the carpark in Shoreline (no idea if he was 'official' or not), so he sorted it for me.

    spotted you near roundwood i think. well done on doing the W200! was going to give an encouraging beep but unsure as to the etiquette in these situations? (I never know if car is saying "get out of my way" or "well done"!)

    also regularly see a guy on james joyce bridge in evenings wearing boards shorts.

    Ah, for a moment I thought it was an item of clothing, then it dawned on me. That sounds like myself and Planet-x, and yes, it was quite nice.

    Thought I'd better post this one before he did!

    Met Jawgap who was sporting the boards colours this morning on the old N1 heading into town just north of the M1 Lissenhall roundabout. Had a nice chat for about 5km before I had to turn off at Swords

    Pleased to see you getting back into the swing of it Jawgap
