Neros alternative

A while ago the subject of finding another place to have a post ride coffee and at the same time supporting local businesses was talked about.

I have just popped into Broken Spokes new place (& looking good it is too) and the owner was saying that he was looking at some sort of cafe setup probably during the summer time.

I for one think this is a great idea as what could be better than having a coffee whilst support a local business that's into cycling.


Thoughts ?

As long as the coffee is good its a winner in my books.

Hi Dave it can not be WORSE..ah ah G

Yes we have discussed this before and I think we came to the conclusion that now we have many members that drive to St Neots for the club run the Market Square is the ideal position also it's a great advert for the club. Not forgetting Chris, there is a pub on next to Nero's !!

I prefer Costa coffee... also broken spoke is a great bike repair shop and a really good guy, but warning after being told it would be two days it took him 3 weeks to service my bike!

So how long you will be waiting for coffee worries me.

Just adding fuel...

obscure part that needed ordering? supplied something yourself that wasn't quite right? found something that needed doing once the bike was in bits? plenty of reasons why even the simplest of jobs might take longer than first thought.

might not always be able to match Wiggle on price, but a good local bike shop that has always looked after us.

Think this topic has drifted a bit.

Market Square has been the meeting point for the club for many years (probably since it started) it is unlikely to change from Neros considering it's position unless a new coffee shop opens on the square which is always possible.

Nothing against BS in fact I have used them myself a fair few times.

why not use the cafe next to zero's it cannot be worse and is cheaper,and they give you free biscuits ah ah G
