Exclamation Weekly Richmond VA Friday night Starbucks Meet (new location)

Okay boys and girls, we’ve decided to move to a new location for our Friday night weekly meet. It’s still at Starbucks but it’s more middle of the way for the southsiders and the westenders. Also the new location is supposedly pretty dead around that time on Fridays. Below is the address, it’s the Starbucks on Huguenot Rd right by the Huguenot bridge.

When:
Every Friday 7:45 – whenever

Where:
Starbucks Coffee
5001 Huguenot Rd
Richmond, VA 23226

My new position at work will have me traveling to Richmond on a more frequent basis starting next month. I'm not sure about Friday nights, but maybe. I'll be in the Short Pump area most likely. As the schedule gets made I'll see if one of you guys/gals has an open night for a beer/coffee.

You can always start a Wed. night meet. This Friday night meet has been going on for years.

I'm not so sure a Wednesday night meet would go over so well! It would be cool to bump into some 8 owners while in Richmond though. There is a Starbucks at the corner of *** and Broad (Short Pump side of the city). One of these nights I wouldn't mind trying to coordinate something. We'll see if anyone lives on that side of the city.

Sorry guys, this time the photos didn’t turn out very good, I forgot to turn off the image stabilizer function on the lends causing it to freak out when tripod is used on some occasions. Some of these photos turn out blurry, sorry.

Here are the rest of the photos

Hehe I don't drive a rx-8. I have a 06 mazda miata. We used to have some folks that come to the meet with rx-8s but they either sold it, or crashed it. I've never owned one but did use to have a rx7.

I wonder why the 8's are so slim in showing for Richmond? Must be an older buyer ... like me! Everytime I'm in Richmond I see 8's, so there must be plenty around. Do any of the Mazda dealers in the area participate in sponsering car rally's?

Haha, there is always something, I forgot to reset my aperture from a larger opening until when I'm almost done taking photos. Oh well, there is always next week.

Here are the rest of the photos.

Hanzo,

I drove by you guys about 8:30 tonight on my way to a dance. Saw the blue FD parked facing Huguenot Road and almost stopped in. Did you get any 8s tonight?
