Any other suggestions for fun things to do, or good places to eat (of course) in the Santa Rosa area would be most appreciated.

Those are the two place I recommend and/or take out of town visitors.. If you like pizza and beer, there's the Russian River Brewery downtown on 4th St (walking distance from the Gardens). Also walking distance from the Gardens is Tex Wasabi's (Sushi & Texas BBQ) is a fun place. And for you Food Network fans, this is one of Guy Fieri's restaurants.

Oh, what, so you don't have to be The Short One? I think someone else (that would be you!) needs to fill that role Saturday.

I'm thinking about getting platform cycling shoes.

BTW, how will you see toenail polish through your cycling shoes?

Have fun ladies!

yellow, aka TSO, also a pedicure junkie

[SadieKate]

The toenail polish is so that we can recognize each other at dinner when our yucky wet jerseys have been discarded.
