Starts at 8am but I know when I did it last year a few times it's usually already pretty active by the time we drive in around 7:30 or a bit earlier. I'm expecting it to be crazy too, unless it winds up raining.

I hope it doesn’t rain. I would suggest we roll in a little earlier just because it will be busy, gotta make sure the 86s get repped well!

Could be tricky. We could try meeting up closer to 6:50 and leaving around 7. It's just harder I think since some of us are traveling from a bit further out.

Totally understandable, it will be quite tricky. Wouldn't want those coming farther out having to get up too early. Maybe shoot for leaving around 7:10 if possible but whatever the majority wants we should run with.

People should avoid arriving late and standing in the long ass Starbucks line to order a bitchass foamy latte.

Yeah, we can set a firm leave-by time. Either 7:10 or a bit earlier. Up to whoever else responds here.

Sad to say, turns out I have some prior commitments so I can't meet up. I will still be there, I'll try to catch you guys out there.

Considering going. I wonder if the weather will affect attendance.

I may just have to stay in my car with the heated seats on the whole time...LOL

Ahh sorry man. Will keep an eye out! Message me on IG if you get there. Plus sometimes by 9ish some people leave, so there might wind up being parking nearby.

Haha. According to Wunderground Saturday should be the last of the rain.. @overlookedx has told me before that on rainy days not too many people show and I think he or someone else told me (maybe @driggity?) it's actually a bit nicer when that happens. But weather forecasts are so tricky these days. It'll definitely be cold though.

The Starbucks we meet at usually isn't that busy when we're there. Unless there's a bunch of beer nerds waiting in line like there was last time.

Also, I usually get a bitchass milky cappuccino, are you suggesting that I should order a bitchass latte and I might get more foam?

You should be showing up ahead of time with your own artisanal fair trade organic single origin coffee purchased from a snobby hipster run, worker owned SF coffee shop.
