Coffee and Rides - Fchatter's Day Off - Saturday 10/30

Okay, yall know the drill by now. The upcoming event will be on Saturday, October 30th from 8:30am-10:30am off Blanco and 1604, behind Applebee's and Johnny Carinos.

I'm sure plenty of you are looking forward to participating in the upcoming event for a good reason. As Ferris Bueller once said, the question isn't "what are we going to do," the question is "what aren't we going to do?"

 

Coffee and Rides is an informal meeting of sports car enthusiasts alongside beautiful cars. The attendees typically consist of sport, exotic, European, and other specialty car owners and fans alike. It's a great opportunity to enjoy a nice drive out for some tasty breakfast, or simply share your passion with other owners and enthusiasts in the community.

The location is next door to Panera Bread Company, for those who come for the actual coffee and breakfast foods. This event is held on the last Saturday of each month, at the same location unless otherwise stated.

The new parking area is shown below. It's on a more spacious lot, and early morning shopper are virtually non existent. I'd park somewhere within the space circled, behind Johnny Carino's and save the area behind Applebee's for overflow parking. The space shown is typically plentiful for all us gear heads.

Any ideas for a new location?

The main concern is being able to accommodate so many cars w/o a lot of morning 'pedestrian' traffic, but you know that. While I don't run the event myself, if we can find an adequate location that welcomes the crowd (extra business), I'd be in full support.

FYI: Here's a copy of the email I got from the events organizer stating why the parking got moved from the original area, in case you haven't seen it.

Being kicked out of the Panera Bread parking lot isn't very welcoming, regardless of the conditions.

 

less than a week away!

 

It's good to see some new cavallino's joining in on the fun.

Aw...

Nice pics as always, and the ride must have been fun.

Wish I had taken more time to get some nice shots of the CS. I wasn't all that fevered for taking pictures today, so the few I took didn't come out all so well.

BTW: It's funny how our pictures make it seem like this was more of a Ferrari meet than a multi-marque cruise in.
