Let's face it. Coffee breaks are the new smoko. It's the best excuse to get out of the office and a genuine reason any employer can hardly deny you.

The only problem is sometimes your friends work at the other end of town for a caffeine rendezvous. Or maybe your favourite cafe isn't the one at the bottom of your building. Or both.

If you own a bike but it's at the bottom of your building in secure storage, take one of the 18kg BLUE bells for a short trip this THURSDAY 31 March between 12 and 1pm.

Take a cobbled lane way en route as part of your Melburn Roobaix 2011 preparations.

Free coffee, prizes, and hopefully a laneway FULL of Melburnians and those BLUE bikes. What a sight to see.

Find your closest BLUE stations here.

Email fyxomatosis(at)gmail.com and we will post you a FREE ACTIVATION CODE to use the bike on the day - or pick one up from Liaison.
