For those peddling a delightful bit of pretentiousness and overpriced java to the fading American middle-class.

Trend Alert: Get Your Fix at These Cycling Cafés
Most early-morning riders need a shot of caffeine to keep the wheels spinning, so it's only natural that there are increasingly more cycling cafés popping up, providing cyclists whatever fix they might need: beer, coffee or a tuneup. Repair, retail and rental shops have combined with coffee shops (and bars!)
Somehow I'm guessing that the market for coffee-drinking cyclists will turn out to be really not all that big.

Haha, 6:39. Yeah, when it becomes available again maybe open a bar called Poor Freddie's.
ReplyDeleteSounds great! What a wonderfully original idea! There's a real market for Bicyclist Coffee in North Kansas City! I'll hop on my bike and check Velo out, just as soon as I finish my Danish and coffee at Le Monde, just like I've been doing every morning for years!
