The Holidays Are Here
November 2022: New Coffees and Congrats to the Sufferfest Survivors!
The Holidays are here. I know. It’s scary, but true. At Coffee Cycle, we’ve already had an awesome Thanksgiving, and are ramping up for December.
Shout out to the 40-ish cyclist who showed up on Thanksgiving morning to participate in the annual FIVE FACES SOLEDAD SUFFERFEST. Not only did they crush the ride up Mt. Soledad from all sides, but they did with a smile. That’s just about the perfect example of the Coffee Cycle vibe right there.
Congrats to the winners, and to all who participated!

ORDER NEW COFFEES:
Oh by the way, did you know we launched our first ever Holiday coffee blend? No big deal, but it features excellent coffee from Guatemala, Colombia, and Indonesia. It is chocolate, spice, and everything nice.
Coffee makes a great gift for friends, family, co-workers, employees, and white elephant events. If you’d like to order a great big bulk order (10+ tins) please reach out to ryan@coffee-cycle.com. We’ll roast it to order especially for you.
Holiday Blend: Chocolate & Spicy from Guatemala, Colombia, Indonesia
Colombia Decaf: Dried fruit, dark chocolate, balanced acidity from Valle del Cauca region of Colombia.
UPCOMING EVENTS:
HOLIDAY MAKER’S MARKET
It back! It’s the perfect place to finish (or start) all your holiday shopping. Keep it simple. Drink coffee. Meet local artists, creatives, and makers. Drink more coffee. The Holiday Maker's Market is going to be awesome, and include local art, jewelry, handcrafted soap and coffee mugs, weaving, books, music, tinctures, handmade breads, painted skulls, poetry, candles, and cycling clothing!
New for 2022: Pre-order Coffee Cycle Holiday Bundles. Combine your favorite CCR coffees or add some Coffee Cycle merch! That’s exciting, right? We’ll roast your coffee gift to order and ship on 12/19, just in time for holidays, or pick-up at the cafe so you can snag a latte or pour over for yourself.

This chill beach cruise starts and ends at Coffee Cycle, and is led by Coffee Cycle's own Chris O'Brien. Enjoy a candy cane and a holiday spiced latte before heading out for a cruise along the bay and the beach.
