Weekly Coffee Gatherings

[ursus]

Nice to meet Lordofthemark and SpaceJockey. If anyone intends to go to the Velo Café, note that as of now it only opens at 8 AM and then only the window where they sell. The inside doesn't open until 9 AM. I assume this will eventually change.


As is typical for me I got there early and tested the bikeometer before the others arrived. It only registers if you go in front of it. If you go behind it or cross the street at that point you will be missed, so if the object is to figure out how many people use the LBP, it is badly undercounting and should have been placed slightly northwest of where it is. It will be a better indication when the LBP continues southeastward..

Howdy all! Recently returned to town, looking over the options for tomorrow’s coffee club. On the calendar FCC I is at Swing’s, but this isn’t listed at the top of this discussion with the rest. Also. Is there an early club at Velo?

Swing's is shut down for reconstruction. FCC I is at A Baked Joint as shown on the FS calendar
Velo Cafe does not open early enough (yet) for a typical commuter coffee club. However, there's a happy hour there tonight.

Try this one instead. There are now 13 coffee clubs, most of which are not shown on the forum calendar. The calendar is also at freezingsaddles.com

Hello everyone, I moved away in 2014, some of you might remember me. Anyway, I'll be in Vienna again for vacation in a couple weeks. Looking forward to maybe seeing some folks at Cafe Amouri or maybe downtown at Swings. Cheers!
