Coffeeneuring 2013 in Eugene

I had ambitions to do more, and in particular to declare my home a coffee shop for a day (with a good story or cycling advice as the price of a cup), but in the end I am satisfied with having finished the coffeeneuring challenge successfully, boosting ever so slightly Oregon's standing as a nexus of bicycles and coffee.
My adventures are as follows:

• October 5:  Mocha at Wandering Goat with Patrick Deegan and his daughters.  This was a wonderful start, and I wish I had been able to turn more of my coffeeneuring outings into meet-ups with delightful people.  Approximately 5 miles round trip. 
• October 12: Mocha and pastry at Hideaway Bakery, with Cyndi.  Bonus visit to preparations for 2013 Eugene Cargo Bike Fair and Disaster Relief Trial on the way home.  Approximately 5 miles round trip. 
• October 13: Hot chocolate at Allann Brothers on Hilyard.  Combined with a scenic loop up McBeth and down Fox Hollow, for a total of about 15 miles. 
• October 19: Caffe Latte at Vero Espresso House, with Cyndi.  Combined with shopping at Smith Family Bookstore (before) and Arriving by Bike (after), for a total of about 9 miles. 
• October 20: Coffee at Linda's Cafe and Deli, Lorane, OR.  This was my only longish coffeeneuring expedition:  Wolf Creek loop counter-clockwise.  Little stores and restaurants in itty-bitty towns are such a treasure and a resource to those of who ramble.  It's a great pleasure to be greeted as a regular at a place like that, some distance from home.  About 70 miles. 
• October 26: PC (Market of Choice) at dawn, before setting out on a permanent brevet with Lynne and Lesli.  Straight espresso. Just barely over the 2 mile minimum. 
• October 27: Hot chocolate at Morning Glory Cafe, by the Amtrak station, to see Lynne off to Portland.  About 10 miles round trip. 
• November 3: Extra credit coffeeneur (#8 of 7), a semi-successful attempt to bike in shapes.  The cup, carefully designed on a map before departure, is more-or-less recognizable.  The saucer, improvised at the last minute based on my mental geography of the river bike path, is a travesty. Straight espresso at Full City Coffee on the way back home.  About 15 miles. 

I regret that I didn't manage to open a coffeeneuring bar one morning and make coffee for lots of other Eugene area lovers of coffee and cycling.  Maybe next year, if there is a next year.  Can MG really keep this up if the coffeeneuring boom spreads?  I hope so.  I have more adventures to plot, and plenty more cafes to visit in the Eugene-Springfield area and further afield.
