Fob posted a photo:

First motorcycle ride of the year! The first ride after a while always takes time to get ready - washing, lubing the chain, checking tire pressures... I didn't have a set destination, just stopped and went as I pleased.

Somehow arriving at the Fishermen's Terminal. Not much is going on there. Then I recalled a nearby coffee shop I wanted to check it out. That's how I ended up at the Caffe Appassionato Coffee Roastery and Tasting Bar. Love the vibe and the space. The place was not busy when I got there. I picked a window seat where I could see my bike. Is it weird that I spy on my own bike?
