Coffeeneuring 2016 - 4 Cups: Part 1

Ride with Mark. That's the actual title for today, which will be explained if you keep reading. This one doesn't officially count as coffeeneuring since it's less than 2 miles. I rode to the Ugly Mug to meet owner/friend/coffeeneurer Steve. I pre-gamed our coffeeneuring adventure with an Americano. So good, it went down a little too fast. Pre-game, that's Steve's word, but I'm going to borrow it. It sounds good and it's fun to say.

The sky looked ominous and the weather forecast 40% rain, so we decided to drive the 11ish miles to breakfast to meet up with more friends.

It's been 1 year since the passing of friend, cycling buddy, and coffee drinker Mark. I thought I'd celebrate his life with a ride and breakfast and maybe some coffee. Fellow cyclists, coffeeneurers, and friends of Mark thought so too. I snapped a quick photo of the Santa Cruz Wharf in his honor. Mark lived a few miles south of here and would get up every morning and sip his coffee while looking out to the Capitola Wharf. Mark, I hope you're still enjoying the view.
