3rd Friday Commute experiments with Multi-Modal

How many good things can happen at the same time? On Friday, we're going to see.

Here's a list of good things we think can happen:

• Breakfast with cycling friends at a new location for most of us,
• Check out putting a bike on a heated train (right about the time we're getting tired of 11-layer-cold-weather cycling),
• Have fun instead of going to work (well, we end up at the office eventually).

On January 15th, a group of us will be scoping out the details of a Breakfast in Buckhead. We've had a few guys ask if we could do this. This is our first attempt to meet with our Buckhead Bicycle Brethren (I'm not sure if we have any Cycling Sistern up there).

I used A-Train to plan out the transit connections.


So we'll get on the train in Decatur at 7:07, ride over to 5 Points to catch the train headed north (2 minutes between trains, nice). From there, we'll head over to the Flying Biscuit in the Terminus 100 Building.

Many of the cyclists work in Buckhead, but after filling our bellies with warmth, a group of us will ride down Peachtree to Midtown/Downtown.

There will be four places you can catch up with us:

• Meet station side of Decatur Square at 7AM to catch the 7:07 train.
• Northbound platform of 5 Points station to catch the 7:24 train.
• Breakfast at the Flying Biscuit shortly before 8AM (Terminus 100 bldg on the corner of Piedmont and Peachtree)
• 9AM or so, ride down Peachtree from Piedmont into Midtown/Downtown.

We'll be keeping score of how many successful things happen as we also note any failures we want to correct before trying this again in March.
