4th entry is an Acai tea along a canal on a solo loop around Bath UK after the Cycle2Save Refugees ride that originated in Bristol. Lots of hippies live on houseboats along the canal and have formed their own subculture where they farm bugs. I also rode through the two tunnels loop where the science of geology was founded, and they now pipe classical music into the longer of the two tunnels! I made this into a half – century ride.

5th entry is a soy latte on my ride to the Blue Loo in Warmly, Bristol UK on the historic Bristol to Bath pathway which was the very first rail to trail conversion in the UK and gave birth to what is today the national network of cycleways. Yeah #Sustrans, the national charity founded to advocate and sustain the national cycling network. I believe that the latte was at mile 16. I may have eaten a brownie or two, too!:-0

6th entry is a lemon – ginger tea at the new flagship REI store in Washington DC while on a business trip and staying at an Air BnB in Brookland. I was also collecting #ABC (always be coffeeneuring) points at the same time. I biked a total of 4 miles and spent too much money on stuff. I may have eaten a muffin, too.

Entry #7 was a soy latte from mid January at Kindred’s cafe in Falls Church made with Tin Lizzie roast from Vigilante. I’m sure @SteveO was involved somehow, but not memorably so. This was a test ride for my new #Lumos #kickstart helmet with integrated light system. I rode a total of 7 miles RT on my 1992 GT Talera hybrid which I have rebuilt more times than I can remember.

Entry #8 was a soy latte made with Italian dark roast at the food court in my DC office building at 1331 Pennsylvania Ave, NW. I was delightfully surprised to find such a gem in a food court, which provides an alternative to going down to the Starbucks at the street level! I commuted 22 miles RT to the coffee at the office that day on my Trek Madone 5.2

Entry #9 continues on the theme of Italian dark roast with a soy capuccino from Ily’s on the corner of New Hampshire Ave and 22nd street NW where I often held meetings when I worked in the West End DC neighborhood. I rode 23 miles RT that day on my Trek Madone 5.2. I was also in #ABC mode during the second week of January.

Entry #10 was a Ruby pour over from a single Ethiopian source (which is the genetic origin of all coffee), at a Baked Joint on H street during a #FCC1 social event. I rode 4 miles RT from an AirBnB at Capitol Hill while on a business trip in early January to Washington DC.

Entry #11 was another soy latte @ cafe Kindred in Falls Church VA in January, witnessed by @TreyHarris. This was on the way home from Church, for a total of 3.5 miles on the Trek Madone 5.2

Entry #12 was a cafe at the Salt & Malt on the lakeshore in Bristol UK while exploring the loop around the Chew Valley reservoir. I may have had carrot cake while there. I rode a total of 35 miles on my beloved SnoWhite, my project bike (2010 Ridley Damocles, Sam Red build, with Easton EC90 carbon wheelset). But if I really wanted to go faster, I would lose some weight!

Entry #13 is a soy latte back at the Baked Wire in Washington DC at another #FCC1. I was celebrating my new #coffeeneuring patch which I got hand delivered by Ms. Coffeeneur who was in at tendency. @SteveO wasn’t present but I may have eaten a breakfast bisquet intended for him.

Entry #14 is obviously a soy latte with an egg and avocado breakfast back at Cafe Kindred (again) in Falls Church after Church service, on my way home, during the first week of January. Mileage was 7 miles RT on the klunker bike. There were snow flurries that morning.

Entry #15 is a soy latte at the Door & Rivet in Bristol UK before the inaugural Sunday Social Ride of the volunteers from the Bristol Bike Project where I moonlight as a mechanic for newbies and those in need of transportation. This was a ride to the Clevedon Riviera which I extended into a half century by riding +14 miles solo on my Jamis Renegade Expert.
