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.

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.
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?

the rangers are useless most people just ignore them and keep riding. They need to paint bike lanes on the bridge it would make it heaps safer.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.

Did you yell out "Dulwich Hill Spotted" ?
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)
Simon Sharwood in his civvies on Market Street yesterday.

Bit hard to say your broken the rules when we haven't set any
Alex in jersey, 4.52pm Victoria Road Marrickville near Marrickville Road intersection.
Called out "Dulwich Hill Spotted!" from window of stationary van.
Result: Alex gives knowing grin.

Is that you on the Masi fixie? I had no idea. I just thought is was another friendly cyclist. We pass each other almost everyday.i saw Adrian E in all blue matching kit with his red hat on. we rode past each other on the Gladesville bridge.
This morning Simon (who works in Gordon) came racing past me. He's said good morning and I felt embrassingly slow as we went up Ryde Road.

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
I would have done more than say hi but I was running late.
Looking forward to the new DHBC spotting game![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

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![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

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.

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![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)

The double-beep is universally accepted as "Hey! I know you!". In my opinion anyway. It's much friendlier than just holding the button down.Spotted Brian Yewenji riding his recumbent at Hercules St Dulwich Hill with Bike Marrickville. I honked the car twice as I passed and he ignored me thinking I was an irate driver behind the wheel.

Someone had a DHBC jersey crossing Anzac Bridge this morning, I couldn't see who it was because they were behind another bike, but I yelled out "Dulwich Hill Spotted"
and mr Mikes you seem to be spotting people all over Sydney. I'm often on the Anzac bridge but haven't seen you there. Maybe I go through too late.Seems Amy is the #1 spotted, I spotted her on Qantas drive bike path this morning while riding back from Marouba FF. Called out "Dulwich Hill Spotted"

My commute route varies daily, depending on which gym I'm instructing at before work
I saw someone riding off oxford onto crown st yesterday evening around 6:20pm, in a DHBC jersey. I was at mad mex having a wonderful burrito. I don't remember the bike he was on because I had to many beers, but I think he may have had boardshorts and a backpack.

I heard you tell out but did not see you, were you going in the opposite direction? It was very cool to hear you call out, was the beginning of an awesome ridei saw the dwbc team at the start of the gong ride just after 6 this morning. it was a nice turn out!
