See all- Shawarma at Shawarmaji then Wednesday walkShawarmaji, Santa Clara, CA
Let's get some shawarma/falafel this Wednesday evening then go for a walk. As a heads up, this is the first time we'll be getting food at a somewhat sit-down place, so it might be a bit chaotic. To keep things simple, place your order when you arrive or order ahead of time using the link below so you don't need to wait, and we can get a table (or multiple) together as people arrive. The ordering/table part might be tricky, but the walk part after should be simpler since we should have everyone by then. If you're not interested in eating/already have dinner plans, you can also join us for just the walk.
Here's their page https://www.theshawarmaji.com/
and here's a link to order online https://www.theshawarmaji.com/s/order?location=L6QBH83Q9SEFC&menu=trueTentative agenda
6:45-7:45 order, eat, talk
7:50ish: head out to walk
7:55-whenever: walk and talkIf you came for the ice cream tacos, this spot is about a 5 minute walk from there so you can probably park at the same place again. This means we're close to Santa Clara University and Santa Clara Mission again, so we'll walk over and check those out after.

We have some cyclists in our group, so I know some of you will be interested in this cycling swap event Sports Basement Sunnyvale is hosting on Saturday. This is NOT an event put on by our group, but more of an informational post, so if you have questions about this you'll need to talk to the Sport Basement staff.
From their event page:
You can't spell recycling without cycling, and you can't find a better place to recycle cycles than at Sports Basement Cycle Swap. It’s like a swap meet for all things bike! Bikes, bike parts, gear, equipment, and anything else bike-related will be available to buy, sell, or trade.
This event is free to the public, and all proceeds from vendor booth spaces will benefit Silicon Valley Bicycle Exchange.Interested in participating as a vendor? Use this link here to learn more.
