Dulwich Hill spotted

This afternoon i spotted Vic riding across the Pyrmont bridge over the 10k speed limit, i waved but was Vic was in her own world.
Then later on i saw Justin riding his fixie along George St dodging buses near QVB.

jbcow · Postby **jbcow** » 16 Sep 2010, 23:04

Didn't see you Michael.

On the other hand, if I posted a spotted for every time I saw Vic on her way to work, I'd clog up the forum.

Are... a completely mealiness thread, perfect to start my day

This week I've spotted Mark H riding along Cooks river. Haven't seen him on a DHBC ride in ages.

Last week it was Amy on her home commute.

I saw Vic yesterday as well, riding with cheeky monkey. Lets dress her in red and white stripes and turn it in to a game.

orphic · Postby **orphic** » 17 Sep 2010, 12:01

Ooh this game sounds like fun! Can I spot myself? How about I make it more challenging and start dressing in disguise when I ride.

Sorry Chidgey, I didn't see you

How annoying are those stupid rangers that wave their stupid things at you along the bridge?

I rode my Townie into the city today. I'm glad nobody saw me because I am sure I looked ridiculous plus I didn't realise how much I must back pedal while slow-maneuvering until I accidentally braked and nearly fell off.

John 'Annoying' on the boards last night, celebrating Div2 1st place, well done and to the rest of you too.

Christian waiting at Randwick gates of Centennial Park for Randwick training ride to start (I am allowed to spot him aren't I? Only when I see him when I don't expect it... Although I suppose I kind of knew he would be there)

My usual commute is Annandale to Gordon - leaving home at 7 am and coming back late.
I love riding over the the bridges on the way to work - seeing the harbour is good for my mental health!

Adrian I think I had a significant equipment weight advantage and no panniers, but sorry about speeding past!
I'll slow down and hyperventilate next time :lol:

I would have done more than say hi but I was running late.

Looking forward to the new DHBC spotting game :lol:

Rainbow · Postby **Rainbow** » 27 Sep 2010, 18:16

I have been spotted by non-DHBC members asking about the club. One fellow today spotted me, said that he'd just moved to Dulwich Hill and would like to ride with us. I enquired as to where he had moved from, he replied "Newtown."!!!!!
Hahaha

christian · Postby **christian** » 30 Sep 2010, 07:56

Spotted John and Alex yesterday in Earlwood on their way back from an epic ride. Forgot to yell out "Dulwich Hill spotted", but they did stop for a chat.

Trouty · Postby **Trouty** » 30 Sep 2010, 15:44

Ok - as I am driving to work or walking through the city, I am continually seeing people in DHBC windvests or jerseys. It used to be I knew them all - but I have seen about 5 guys in the last month with club kit that I have never seen before on any rides with us at slowies or waterfall. Where are all these people from?...who are they? Good to see we are getting bigger though.

simon.sharwood · Postby **simon.sharwood** » 30 Sep 2010, 16:00

I saw Vic walking in the city last week, and Camilla stuck at traffic lights in Stanmore on Monday.

Weiyun spotted in Centennial Park. Had a nice couple of laps having a chat before he was to head off.

Unfortunately not long after that I spotted a poor man who had what seemed to be a heart attack while riding. It was not a very pleasant morning and I can only hope he was ok but when I left things did not look promising
