This is not the Vermont Fall Classic writeup -- for now, have a flickr album of that.
Like the onset of evening, fall is a time when it's kind of hard to keep riding; in the dead of winter or the middle of the night, the only way to ride is to just ride, but in the fall, it's kind of suddenly dreary. I haven't been riding as much; have been jogging a bit, but that's another post.
A prominent randonneuring blogger had a solution: the coffeeneuring challenge. Get out every weekend for coffee for seven weeks (or more precisely, 7 times in 7 weeks; 2-for-1s some weekends are OK.)
It's also a good way for me to try to get more regular about blogging things quickly rather than sitting on them FOREVER. Though not having a smartphone makes it harder, as I have to cart my camera around and upload stuff manually.

- Where: Diesel Cafe, Somerville, MA
- When: October 4th, 2014
- Drink: Green Tea Latte with soymilk, plus breakfast (not pictured as I'd already eaten it by the time I got out the camera).
- Bike Friendliness: A+ See picture above: the parking space directly outside it is now a bike rack, all year round. Taking the Brompton in was a bit of a pain as it was more packed than it's usual hordes on Saturday morning, as there'd been a 5k road race that morning. But I found a seat where I could tuck it under one of the long tables.
- Total Mileage: 6.8, apparently! Yes, I uploaded it to Strava. Was kind of curious how fast I go in relaxed errand-running mode, especially since the ride home was after getting a massage and I was a bit loopy.
