I haven't seen a bike rack at Starbucks. What do you normally secure your bike to? Anyone carry it in? Drive-Thru?
U-Locks rule!

But then I'm in a bad part of town...



I don't ride to Starbucks, but our little Sunday afternoon group ride often winds up at a little coffee shop, Community Bakery, over on the south side of town. What I've found to be most versatile and still easy to carry is a 3-foot, key-locking cable, and locking up to a lamp post or steel railing if there's no decent bike rack around.
