I've never been to Tamarindo, always game for Le Cheval .... Rockridge .... hmmm, what's the Italian place? Il Pomadoro? sumthin like that?

I'm heading home from work, I expect choices made and lots of interest by the time I get home or there'll be some 'splainin' to do

This doesn't seem to be generating any interest (except us 3)...

Prehaps its just a dud this year.

More for the rest of us And I could not ask for better company

Hey Gals,

Sorry for not responding....to say I've been busy would be an understatement.

I'm open for wherever and whatever....as long as I get carbs - pasta preferred, but I can do mex. Fuzio's works, but maybe you guys know of somewhere different?

Small group this year!

So now it looks liike:
Spazz
Trek
Bike Goddess
Sarah
BikeMomma
Smilin' Cat

Perhaps BikeMomma and Smilin Cat could carpool over to Rockridge OR Oakland (majority rules???) Also BART from Pleasanton is easy to Oakland. WE can tell you how to do that too.

I prefer an Oakland type BART stop.......

where do we wanna eat?

[Trek420]

Bike Goddess and all. Tomorrow is a crazy busy day for me. Someone please pick an eatery. I'm off work at 6 and will try to be there. Between the remodel, my job, and other errands I won't be able to coordinate this tomorrow.

Sorry it's so last minute. We'll do better next year.

[Bike Goddess]

Okay- Pasta Pomodoro
5500 College Ave
Oakland, 94618

Oliveto Cafe
5655 College Ave
Oakland, CA


You can mapquest these to figure out where they are- within a block of each other. I can get off at the Rockridge BART station- and meet everyone there or nearby.

I'll call both Shawn and Dita today.
Okay with me if we don't do this, but I need to know as I'm not coming over for nothing.

Hopefully I'll see you all tonight!

[Bike Goddess]

the Rockridge BART station is: 5660 College Ave.

[smilingcat]

I just checked mapquest to the restaurant. The two are right next door. I'll go for either location.

I just printed out BART schedule to/from pleasanton cheap! I'll make sure I have exact change just in case. but it looks like two changes and 30 minutes to rockbridge BART
Runs frequent

Found the location of Dublin/pleasanton station too. Close to where I am staying.

I think the BART is going to be busy on Friday night. Going into town. no??
well its running every 15 minutes.

[Bike Goddess]

Smiling Cat and I will meet at the bottom of the escalator at Rockridge BART 7:00 ish. We will meet Sarah there as well.

Let's all meet at Oliveto's Cafe- 7:00ish and then decide which to patronize- them or Pasta Pomodoro since they are very near each other.

Looking forward to close encounters!

[Trek420]

That should work well. My plan if I have one is I'll get off work at 6, walk briskly to the car and pick up Spazzdog. She's nearby. We'll carpool to Rockridge and find you.

Look for the short round gal, purple ALC shirt, clashing Ibex green jacket, jeans, glasses .... needs a haircut.

[Bike Goddess]

You think I can't find my ALC tent mate?
