FIELD TRIP!!! Scharffen Berger Chocolate Factory Tour and a Ride??

**SadieKate** · 07-18-2006, 09:20 AM

We'll probably need to maintain 2 lists. One for the tour and one for the ride.

Count Bill and me in for the ride.

Everyone else?

**bikerz** · 07-18-2006, 09:24 AM

OK - here's the ride list:

SadieKate and Bubba
BikerZ
RSquare
AdventureGirl (maybe)

who else?????

**maillotpois** · 07-18-2006, 09:38 AM

We're in for lunch, but not for the ride.

Please list me as a "maybe" for the tour, lunch and ride. I'd love to do all three. I will be either a yes or no for the trifecta but I won't know until early August.

Chocolate.... Yum.... Scharffen Berger... Yummmmmmmm!

I paid the tour fee this morning and we're signed up as Amici Veloci.

Update on Keen sandals - some models might be OK but if too much skin is showing they may ask you to wear other shoes.

I can't begin to describe how excited Em is about this. When I told her last night, she jumped up and down. She's a big dark chocolate fan. All of which reminded me that 2 nice sections of the Peets/Scharffenberger bar that Mike brought me in the hospital are still in the fridge. I'd clean forgot about them until last night. Wonder how long they'll last now.....

You mean we can't wear our cleats?

You know, if that whole "business" thing of yours ever goes south, you'd give Julie on the Love Boat a run for her money as Activities Director

p.s. i should be around. no ride, but a tour with friends would be nice.

**bikerz** · 07-19-2006, 12:17 PM

Cindy - are you in for the lunch as well as the tour???

I guess the other logistics issue is what to do with all the bikes while we eat, which is why the cafe on the trail itself was appealing, but Cindy, your list looks great - I'm totally open to suggestions. Vic's Chaat Corner is amazing, if you like South Indian food (yumm - dosas!)

Lunch list as of 7/19:
SadieKate and Bubba
BikerZ
RSQuare
Maillotpois and the PetitePois

Maybes:
AdventureGirl
SlinkeDog

Bikerz - I'm in for lunch too; still undecided about riding.

**SadieKate** · 07-19-2006, 12:22 PM

Nice that we had this little tour planned for all of our friends who can't ride for a while . . . .

Oh, I'll do the ride. And I might as well do lunch.

I guess we have a full month to figure out logistics.

I actually can go either way on the tour, so if shuffling or switching is needed, I can be a maybe. (Realizing that I committed to reimbursing SadieKate, which I am agreed to one way or the other.)
