Y'know what? I looked at that calendar link, and y'know
what I saw? A bunch of nice people for whom I wish good
lives & experiences. No hubba-hubba nod-nod wink-wink.
No cheesecake (but Duncan Hines & Betty Crocker is pretty
good, too.) Some nice, honest smiles from fellow riders,
though.
I like to see the smiles of happy people.
That's what makes the world bearable.
Maybe that's the bike rider's job.
cheers,
Tom

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Is that all? Our streets are paved with those things :-)
Trust me -- whatcha need is a nice Mile High with slaw,
a big pickle and a dab of hot mustard and maybe a handful
of rolly-polly big olives on the side. Don't forget to
ask for extra paper napkins (or bring some along.)
Actually it doesn't hurt to bring your own cutlery along.
> Well,
> okay, maybe not kill. Main lightly?
Next time you're up here, look me up. I can give you a guided
tour of various Greek, Italian, Near Eastern, West Indies/Jamaican,
Polish/Ukrainian/Russian, Asian/Western Fusion, Sushi, Hungarian
(Yumm!), old-style Cantonese take-out, etc. Even Mongolian BBQ.
And various kinds of fish 'n chips.
And then there are the bakeries.
No awful falafels here.
But really, urban cycling is so wonderful when there are
better places to haul-up to for fuel-stops than Mr Tubesteak
or Rotten Ronny's.
Maybe I should move down there, and open up a ride-thru/sit-in
deli where riders are more than welcome.
cheers,
Tom

There's a couple here, but none that are any good. They don't even have
any sweet peppers usually. :-(
And the bread is usually fluffy wonder-bread-ness that would make a
stoic cry for relief.

Now you are definitely talking my language.

I will be happy to take you up on your offer. Possibly later this year.
I'm contemplating riding up to Vancouver either with some friends in a
couple months or possibly later this summer.
> And then there are the bakeries.
The Chinese and French bakeries here are actually very good. The
Italian bakery I've been to nearby is so-so, but has some good bread.
Their pastries are nothing to write home about.

My group of cycling holligans seems to have an obsession with Taco
Trucks. Which is not necessarily a bad thing.

I believe "mouth breathing" == atavism -- slack-jawed,
hairy-backed, testosterone-rife neo-troglodytes. Think:
tailgate parties at football games. Although I think
Dane was exaggerating.
So let's just say: "hetero male with the typical occasional
propensity to not think enough about what they're getting
involved with, or interested in. Responding more to medullar
than cortical impulses."
I dunno about "sausage fest". I've compiled many wonderous
deli platters including various sausage meats. But apparently
Seattle is bereft of delis.
mmmm ... cervelat ... <drool >
My body hair is standing up just from thinking about it.
And I can feel my big toe stirring around in my boot[*].

Yeah, this pretty much describes a lot of club .83. Well, not Dane.

LOL!
Seattle's lack of decent delis has been reked upon by many.

Well, it was mostly in jest. I do appreciate your standing up for my
ability to count past ten with my shoes on. <G >

So sadly true. I'd kill for a good Italian subine sandwich. Well,
okay, maybe not kill. Main lightly?

I'm just curious how you caught wind of it. I know Molly posted to a
few LiveJournal communities, but I wasn't sure where else it was being
promoted.
I was contemplating posting this myself, but wasn't sure whether it
would be polite or not. Granted it's bike related, but it felt a bit
like spam (for me to post it, since I'm a .83 member).
And yes, at times my bike club can be a mouth breathing sausage fest,
but I do see many of these ladies out on bikes many a Tuesday or
Thursday night. Actually despite it being terribly cold (for Seattle),
I think I saw all but three of them out last Thursday.

I'm sorry. I can't parse "mouth breathing sausage fest". Can you
elucidate?

After I wrote this, I did go and check the cbc site and notice it was
posted there.
