    I will once again award a Pointless Prize(s) for whoever manages to do the most coffee rides. Hashtag your ride title on Strava #coffeeride. Rules:

    1. The idea is to see how many DIFFERENT coffee shops you can visit (and drink some sort of coffee beverage) during the course of Freezing Saddles.
    2. The one coffee shop that doesn’t count is STARBUCKS. This is non-negotiable.
    3. Other chain (national or local/regional) coffee shops, e.g., Peet’s, are OK but you can only count one visit to a single location. In other words, you can’t go to a second location of the same chain and count that as a coffee ride.
    4. Visits to multiple coffee shops on the same day will require you to make them separate rides if you want each coffee shop to count. So even if you’re doing “one” ride, you’ll need to divide it into separate rides on Strava and each one with the hashtag #coffeeride. So end your ride when you visit your first coffee shop. And then start another ride from there to your second coffee shop. Repeat as necessary.
    5. Either in your Strava ride title or description, name the coffee shop you visited and what you drank.
    6. Post PICTURES in this thread as evidence that you visited said coffee shop. You can post pics on Strava too, of course.

    The winner is the person who visits the most coffee shops. If there’s a tie, the tiebreaker will be who rode the most miles for coffee. And I will also take into consideration if you were diligent posting pics in this thread (and possibly the creativity of those pics).

    NOTE: Previous winners (you know who you are!) aren’t eligible for the prize. Just because I want to give someone else a chance to win.

    #coffeeride #18 – Columbus Natural Foods, Columbus Ave at W 95th St on the UWS

    I was late getting out for my ride and my intended coffee shop was already closed for the afternoon. I asked for a doppio, but got an extra long doppio, which is what I would have wanted if I knew they made them.

    #coffeeride #20 – I stopped at 9 Tails on W 126th St in Harlem for my Americano and chocolate croissant. The store is both a coffee bar and plant store. The bamboo out front is almost obscuring the Coffee signs (took a rest day yesterday).

    I’m not a coffee drinker, but I did get a cup of chai for today’s photo scavenger hunt so thought I’d post it here too.

    Idido’s Coffee Shop on S. Walter Reed Drive just south of the Columbia Pike intersection. Great little place, and great chai!
