47T chain ring and 24T cluster doesn't work up Audley. No excuse next time.

Ha ha, lucky you weren't on your fixie

Posted: **10 Apr 2012, 09:25**

a fixie would have helped! well not for changing gears, that is a slow process, but up a hill a fixie is better if you don't want to change gears!

Posted: **10 Apr 2012, 10:25**

I'm planning to ride up Artillery hill on 74" in May. Should be interesting

Posted: **10 Apr 2012, 11:10**

... damage your knees?

Posted: **10 Apr 2012, 11:30**

That's a technique issue

Posted: **11 Apr 2012, 10:02**

Saw a guy maybe early 40s in centennial park this morning on a Trek Speed Concept TT bike, wearing a DHBC jersey and some HTC bibs. Didn't recognise him, or his fairly serious bike.

Then saw ben riding past Deus on his way (presumably) to work.

Posted: **11 Apr 2012, 11:04**

christian went by me on enmore road. while i was dieing after a sprint session at skating. it was a track stand party at the top with the addition of another non dhbc friend of mine. then christian took off. i hate him! but that's ok because i had a better friend to talk to on my way into the city.

I also saw Amy on carrington rd

Posted: **11 Apr 2012, 11:25**

Amy, early on in Petersham. Vision was blocked by traffic, but her hair gave it away

Posted: **11 Apr 2012, 16:17**

I also saw Amy last week on Enmore Road. Was in the car so didn't want to beep and scare the life out of her...

Posted: **15 Apr 2012, 19:06**

Spotted a neighbour (from across the road) rolling in from the adventure ride this afternoon whilst I was doing spot of gardening out the front. Didn't realise he is a DH member! Must go over and say hello now!!!

Posted: **15 Apr 2012, 21:56**

Anthony in hanging out in the pits between laps at today's mountain bike race.

Glen washing out in front of me on a corner in today's mountain bike race.

Nice to see you boys

Posted: **16 Apr 2012, 10:02**

I keep spotting Mick Mazza all over the place

Posted: **16 Apr 2012, 16:53**

We saw him coming home from Waterfall the other week in his car, he beeped us and we waved back.

Posted: **17 Apr 2012, 09:41**

Driving at 5:30 this morning I noticed a DHBC rider turning right at the corner of City Rd and Cleveland St. However, as it was so dark I could not see who it was. I would suggest to him, however, given it was so dark, that he purchase some rear lights for his bike. He is lucky that I, and the other drivers around me, could see him. Not to mention the fact that he had to merge across 3 lanes to turn right.

I did feel a bit for him though as it started pouring with rain minutes after I passed.

Posted: **22 Apr 2012, 21:42**

Patty on the Wakehurst Parkway this morning.

Posted: **03 May 2012, 14:01**

Someone in DHbC kit this morning at 8am in Belmont St Alexandra. I yelled out "Dulwich Hill Spotted" as our bikes passed in opposite directions.

Posted: **03 May 2012, 16:38**

I'd say that was Alan. We did the eastern suburbs hills this morning along with Lizanne, Ben and Rhys.

Posted: **16 May 2012, 08:06**

Just spotted Kazie waiting to cross Parramatta rd near burwood. He was sporting a bandana in what I can on assume was a tribute to the late Pantani.

Posted: **16 May 2012, 14:08**

A red sweat-band. I can make you one too if you want...

Posted: **20 May 2012, 11:19**

Spotted Toff at CP this morning. Then on the way home, Eleri and a few of the boys who were on their way back from the Heffron crits caught up with me at redfern station.

Posted: **21 May 2012, 18:46**

I was beeping my horn at Christian and some sort of unlit dark rider in green with him I think, it was a bit dark and he didn't have lights on though, so I am unsure whom it was... Sat night I think

Posted: **21 May 2012, 19:26**

Was it this guy?

Posted: **21 May 2012, 21:59**

it could have been, it was dark, though is that a light on that guys bike? I don't think the mysterious green male, or quite possibly female rider, had lights.

Posted: **28 May 2012, 09:05**

A DH jersey this morning 8am on Union st heading towards the city. I was running far too late at the time to say hello, or see who it was.

Posted: **02 Jun 2012, 13:27**

I spotted someone in DHBC kit commuting with backpack on at Victotia Rd almost onto Enmore Road. It was Friday 31st May at 5.45am and I drove by and couldn't see who it was. It was very dark.

Posted: **02 Jun 2012, 13:29**

I saw Geoff S and Marian in the carpark of Tempe Station whilst administrating driving lessons to my daughter. Geoff was wearing his kit and it was 11.30 am today.

Posted: **02 Jun 2012, 18:40**

Very likely me commuting Geoff... Ridiculous time of the morning and on my way to work, hence the backpack. Knew it was a good idea to put my DHBC jersey on.

Speaking of which though, what were YOU doing up at 545am?

Posted: **02 Jun 2012, 19:46**

Spotted Marian and Geoff too today at about 1pm. Crossing at lights on Gardiners Road, next to Bunnings Mascot. Both wore identical bright orange rain jackets. Was bucketing down at the time. Ironically on the way to pick up a new acquisition - vintage 'Bob Jackson' UK touring bike.

Jo. I as on my way to Mr Clements spin class at the SCG gym.

Posted: **03 Jun 2012, 11:31**

Jo, Adam, Eleri, Todd at Rockdale FF this morning

Photos please. I've always liked Bob.

Posted: **03 Jun 2012, 17:21**

Yep, no probs with photos, but want to set it up first. Looks like a late 70s or early 80s bike but missing its Shimano 600 arabesque derailleur and down tube shifters. Wheels and new tyres have to be sorted out too. Uses 27 inch wheels. Will post in the Vintage bike forum.

Posted: **09 Jun 2012, 11:18**

How good is this?

Via the website contacts (thanks Simon S for fixing this just yesterday!) a message titled "Rumilly"

"hello yesterday i see your jersey at rumilly france for the dauphine me i was at geelong in 2010 bye"

from a chap in France.

Posted: **09 Jun 2012, 15:04**

Is that our first international spotted? Pretty cool.

Posted: **16 Jun 2012, 15:27**

Wow! That was me! Stuart & Michele were being GreenEdge groupies that day and obviously Jo was dressed to best attract Cadel. I wore my DHBC jersey, ironically telling Ted that that way he could spot me on tv!

Posted: **17 Jun 2012, 20:34**

Sent to me from a colleague this morning - the Middies bunch in some traffic.

Posted: **17 Jun 2012, 22:52**

Channel 7 News is running some hyped up anti-cycling article during the 6pm News Monday 18th July (tomorrow). Sounds like Telegraph/Murdoch Press and Alan Jones style journalism.

But on the promo ad, I did see the glimse of a DHBC jersey riding up the King Street cycleway from Darling Harbour. Who could it be????

Posted: **18 Jun 2012, 12:27**

Saw Mike riding back from a shift at Rockdale FF early this am wearing what could only be described as a reinforced ice-cream container on his head. Style'n

Posted: **18 Jun 2012, 12:39**

Keeps me warm

Posted: **19 Jun 2012, 19:29**

I think it was me on the Channel 7 promo. Just saw it on their website. Lucky I was waiting in the queue like a good cycling citizen.

The segment was typical Channel 7 trash. Truly infuriating coverage.

I wish the cycling fraternity had a 'Mad Men' ad agency on our side. Even in the UK the biggest sponsor of British cycling is a Murdoch media outlet.

Posted: **13 Jul 2012, 17:09**

It's a bit of loose interpretation of DH spotted, more like DH spotted through an associate. My parents are travelling up north and are staying at Tuncurry. At the place of accommodation they noticed a gentleman on rollers in a DHBC jersey. They had a chat with him and it turns out he's a track cyclist by the name of Des Kidd!

Posted: **13 Jul 2012, 22:24**

Des Kidd is a DHBC legend, and I'm pretty sure he's an Aussie champion in his age group. He used to ride RAW a couple of years back, and used to come down to Tempe back then too, but I haven't seen him for a year or so.

Posted: **13 Jul 2012, 22:25**

Saw him at the NSW Track titles in February.

Posted: **14 Jul 2012, 20:43**

Spotted Andrew riding through the fine streets of Chatswood on Friday morning...

Posted: **20 Aug 2012, 08:45**

Spotted Jeremy on Bestic Street yesterday at 8.00am. Jeremy was concentrating intently as he attacked the incline to West Botany Street. I did not want to yell out "spotted" in case Jeremy was distracted and he also had a car sitting dangerously close behind him. Apologises Jeremy for calling you Adrian on Saturday, I had a brain snap.

Posted: **20 Aug 2012, 09:55**

Spotted Adrian, or a very good impersonator, Beaumont St. Hamilton on Sunday morning.

Posted: **31 Aug 2012, 15:17**

I saw Lindsay on Livingstone Road riding to work on Thursday morning. But then, I see him most mornings when I am running late given he rides past my house.

Posted: **01 Sep 2012, 21:44**

I saw one of the Dulwich Hill ladies ridings along parramatta rd leichardt about 9.20pm sat. Could not see face properly but bike had yellow panier

Spotted Justin in the cross this morning, he looked to be sneaking in a few km's before work. Hope you took a rain jacket to work for the ride home, again

Posted: **19 Sep 2012, 14:09**

Hey Rhys. Yeah, trying to get back on the bike after a long time on the bus.

No rain jacket but the beer always helps to numb the senses...

Posted: **20 Sep 2012, 14:07**

a DHBC feast today;
1. James C this morning in the CBD as I was heading home
2. Christian this morning in Newtown, also while heading home
3. Geoff M in the CBD at lunchtime as I was collecting my bike to ride home

Posted: **20 Sep 2012, 15:16**

Haven't spotted Justin ever on a commute, but we have ridden together twice this week!

Posted: **20 Sep 2012, 17:21**

Yeah Simon - bizarre. I've been going over Anzac bridge about the same time for two years. Think I need an electric hub to keep up with you on the climb....

I also met Tim from Haberfield on the way home last night; his red DH jersey gave him away.

Tempe -> North Sydney -> Tempe
Tempe -> CBD -> Tempe
Tempe -> Newtown -> Tempe

Thursday is soft by Monday standards

Should of bumped into EMT but apparently she had to wash her hair

Posted: **21 Sep 2012, 00:55**

Pretty sure I saw Jeremy powering up Elizabeth street at the intersection of Devonshire Street, just after 6.30 this evening. Black bike, with lights on and DHBC kit.

Yep, I was in a hurry

Posted: **23 Sep 2012, 11:39**

Lizanne zooming passed Redfern Cop Shop heading east at about 10.15am this morning. I was heading back from LaPa and Clovelly. In my head I shouted "Dulwich Hill Spotted!". Unfortunately what came out was Arghstumpfcoughcough. Oh well it's the thought that counts I suppose.

Posted: **23 Sep 2012, 16:09**

Spotted a few of the DHBC crew climbing through the RNP this morning as I was heading down the other way from the Garie turnoff.

Was a great day to be in the park.

Posted: **23 Sep 2012, 18:15**

Spotted AndrewM in Marrickville Metro supermarket yesterday. He's been doing secret training and is looking very trim.

Posted: **23 Sep 2012, 18:59**

Spotted Karize and Peter yesterday near redfern station. I was on the fixie in plain clothes, they were rocking the DHBC attire.

Posted: **18 Oct 2012, 22:04**

Spotted Geoff Semon on tonights SBS World News. Story on dopey Armstrong. Comment by Steve Hogg and image of Geoff with Steve and his 'Seven' titanium bike

Posted: **24 Oct 2012, 09:35**

Spotted Mark Lacey on Crystal St this morning... Waved, but I was in a Tour de France T-shirt so don't blame him for ignoring me...

Posted: **01 Nov 2012, 07:23**

Spotted 3 riders, one in the DH jersey and two in black heading down my street in Hurlstone Park at about 6:15 this morning. Not sure who it was.

Posted: **02 Nov 2012, 07:43**

Last night about 7.25 pm ANZAC bridge: rider in DH jersey on a black fixie or some such - westbound into that awful headwind. Focussed as I was on mere survival, I didn't look to see who it was, much less say hello.

Posted: **20 Nov 2012, 20:17**

Andrew M riding out through Little Bay towards (presumably) La Perouse this morning.

Posted: **21 Nov 2012, 07:41**

Noog? I spot him occasionally around lilyfield on a black bike

Posted: **21 Nov 2012, 08:53**

Spotted!!! DHBC Wed peloton at Redfern

I'm still getting over a mammoth shift on Mon and headed to CP for laps...and of course coffee and cherry toast

Posted: **21 Nov 2012, 09:14**

Nice to see you too Mark!

Posted: **22 Nov 2012, 18:50**

spotted taking in some tunes at the Glebe Festival last Sunday.

Posted: **23 Nov 2012, 07:11**

spotted Adrian yesterday going past the redfern cop shop, called out but he didn't spot me... i was hiding behind a car

Posted: **23 Nov 2012, 21:15**

The bride came home last night and announced she had 'spotted' a DHBC rider at the intersection of Parramatta Rd and City rd just before 6am - when on her way to the gym. According to her he looked like a proper cyclist (read, the right shape)!!

Posted: **23 Nov 2012, 21:27**

Male or female? Not sure you'd call me the right 'shape' but that is my area of choice on the way to work...

Posted: **23 Nov 2012, 21:28**

Oh sorry. Misread your post. Male. Can't delete on this thing...

Posted: **27 Nov 2012, 08:41**

Not a DHBC member, but I saw one of the track juniors Caitlin (Katelyn?) from Easts in Centennial Park this morning. She was being drafted by a man who must have been at least 6 foot - quite a funny sight.

Posted: **27 Nov 2012, 09:43**

was the dude another guy from easts or a random?
and it wasn't her dad, you'd recognize him

Posted: **04 Dec 2012, 09:44**

Trouty this morning in Centennial Park with her BRAT friends. Always at the front!

Posted: **04 Dec 2012, 13:23**

Spotted a DHBC member on the corner of Sydenham Rd and Livingstone Rd this morning but his head was down so couldn't see who it was. A defining feature of his outfit was his red Canadian Knicks...

Posted: **05 Dec 2012, 17:29**

Saw Geoff Semon on New Canterbury Rd riding his tandem bike with no tandem...

Posted: **05 Dec 2012, 18:09**

Oh sorry. Misread your post. Male. Can't delete on this thing...

yes you can ...

Posted: **05 Dec 2012, 20:04**

Spotted two dh riders this evening. One female on lilyfield rd at about 5:30ish and one male heading the opposite way soon after.

Posted: **06 Dec 2012, 07:32**

yes you can ...

I couldn't work out how to do it on my phone - Tapatalk?

That would have been me on Lilyfield Rd Strawburger. I took the long way home last night it was such a beautiful day (albeit a little windy)...

Posted: **06 Dec 2012, 21:42**

A guy in DHBC jersey leaving Centennial Park just after 5 this afternoon. Didn't see his bike, only his grey helmet and he had black socks on. Should have stayed for a few spirited laps with the bunch! Not often I see a club jersey in my travels, it perked me up a bit.

Wasn't me, I rode thru CP with a DHBC jersey on, but it was about 4pm

I was lapping CP Thursday arvo at that time, but was in a RTCC jersey

Posted: **07 Dec 2012, 12:34**

jothebuilder and eleri this morning in a very organised and attractive bunch on the way out to lapa

i had one too many chromsones to fit in - so didn't follow them to the golf course lest they spot the dirty old man at the back.....

Posted: **07 Dec 2012, 13:46**

Yes that was good fun. Organised by Mel from SU Velo. Apparently they are held regularly and it was quite a swift pace so I'd definitely like to go again. Perhaps won't go on the fixie next time though.

There was actually a guy on the back of the bunch this morning. I'm not sure what he was doing... Perhaps he is single.

I rode past deus and saw Lizanne etc sitting there. I kept riding because someone there was wearing a Vanderkitten kit and I didn't want to get school-girl excited.

spotted the international man of mystery this morning 7:05 ish @ the cnr of the cooks river(view street) and Princes hwy. We crossed the road together, and then as i went towards the airport he mysteriously disappeared. Or he just turned towards Brighton.

Then yelled spotted to Stuart and Geoff on Bourke St

whew, busy day

Posted: **12 Dec 2012, 14:09**

Then yelled spotted to Stuart and Geoff on Bourke St .. whew, busy day

Actually Stuart & Cameron ... thanks for the yell out .. you'd just been 'rider left' till that point

Posted: **17 Dec 2012, 11:25**

Me and simon drove past two different DHBC riders (well I saw one, and him the other, on the weekend, on the M5. One on saturday arvo, simon thought a young lad, and one on sunday arvo, I reckon a lad in his 30's or so?

Posted: **18 Dec 2012, 18:05**

Just spotted Lindsay getting off train just now at Sydenham Station with bike and full DHBC kit. Was he just lazy or drunk?

Posted: **18 Dec 2012, 19:46**

Spotted someone in DHBC jersey this morning, heading east, on the road on Gladesville bridge. More courageous than me on the pathway.

Posted: **19 Dec 2012, 20:36**

Spotted Jonboy out for a sly bit of training near Sydenham rd. was driving with spawn to the track so I refrained from yelling out the open window and thereby setting a poor example to an impressionable junior club member. I texted "spotted!" Instead. I am a model citizen

Posted: **10 Jan 2013, 09:04**

1 DHBC jersey rider + 1 red jersey rider spotted around 3-4pm yesterday (Wed 9 Jan) on Broughton St, Concord. What secret training have they been up to? The pair turned onto La Mascotte Ave just as I was about to beep past them...

Posted: **10 Jan 2013, 10:20**

Karzie and StevanR. Riding home from work as usual. Concord Hospital.

Posted: **10 Jan 2013, 10:27**

Ah, should have recognised you and your bike but didn't. Didn't know about your link with CRGH.
