okay tomorrow is my last furlough day and I want to make it to at least one Friday coffee club. Can someone tell me where they are and times. I think one is in Herndon but that is far. I think the original on is Java Shack Arlington, but i need address?
Which one is going to have the most people? Figure I can meet some of you have a coffee or two or three and then go out for a ride.

The original is at ME Swings just west of the Old Exec Office Building
1702 G St NW
Washington, DC
(202) 628-7601

FCC2 is at the Java Shack about 2-3 blocks NW from the Arlington County headquarters building
2507 Franklin Rd Arlington, VA 22201
(703) 527-9556

The event at Swings is typically larger. Both start about 0730, or so.

Hit them both. You might want to check in in at Swings, then swing out to Java Shack. That’s what I want to do, but I never get up early enough.

So sad I tried but couldn’t get up, I hate mornings. I am still in my PJ’s. I did set the alarm but just couldn’t do it. Missed you guys.

I tried and “almost” made it to FCC at Swings today, but need to set the alarm just a little earlier. Hope to make it to one soon!

In the meantime, there will be a new Hump Day Coffee Club at Best Buns in Shirlington starting this Wednesday. All are welcome!

Yeah! I just have to get there earlier (say by 7 am) to get in time for coffee and a croissant and still make it to work on time.

I’m going to try to be there by 7 a.m. too. Good company and a cheddar bacon scone with my coffee are great incentives.

And the grips match the saddle.
These things matter.
