KTMrad 515 Posted February 24, 2011 I'd like to know if y'all would prefer a change of venue for SDAR club meeting, do it at a restaurant maybe in Mira Mesa somewhere. Or, next possible shop to host a meeting might be Fun Bike Center on Kearny Villa Road. Please vote in the poll above this post. Thanks ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCHWINN 0 Posted February 24, 2011 As long as there is food, I dont care where we have it...( Good Food ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yeti 0 Posted February 24, 2011 Yeah, I don't really care either as long as there's food. Nice thing about shops is that we don't have to worry about offending (now who would do that??) other patrons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joliet 0 Posted February 24, 2011 If we have it at a restaurant, the seating, tables, food and drink are already there, so less work setting up and tearing down, more time to socialize. We do really need to have a big room to ourselves, just make sure it is a restaurant with a beer/wine license and plenty of parking. (I imagine that will significantly narrow the choices) Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted February 24, 2011 agreed... a banquet room is ideal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KTMrad 515 Posted February 24, 2011 OK, one suggestion is Boll Weevil off Clairemont Mesa. Any suggestions for anything in Mira Mesa ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zoot 0 Posted February 24, 2011 I live in Claremont so BollWeevil is nice but we could do Callahan's in Mira Mesa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mistress of the dual 1 Posted February 24, 2011 Karl Strauss Brewery Gardens on Scranton in Mira Mesa. We do a couple of work parties there a year and they give us a big section of the patio. Great beer, food & service. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrollingForFish 0 Posted February 24, 2011 Does it have to be Mira Mesa? The Boll Weevil in Lakeside is large, not that busy and used to large rowdy groups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rexr 0 Posted February 25, 2011 If we can keep it at a location around Kearny Mesa it would be easier for us North County guys to come. If we have it in Lakeside or El Cajon that is a bit far to travel for some. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(I imagine that will significantly narrow the choices) Ken Sorry, I don't drink.... beer or wine. But.... Full Bar would be most excellent. And yes we have had things in East County and Kearny Mesa the last few times. If the weather is co-operative (time change soon!) the ride isn't too much trouble. Did I miss the dates?

I agree; with so many North County/East County folks, a nice central SD location is good... Mira Mesa, Kearny Mesa, etc, freeway close it is the price we pay for living in the Mountains and close to riding areas (and John only lives THREE MILES or less to Corral Canyon Roger) South of 56, East of 805, North of 8, West of 67 probably suits the most people Spyder- bota bag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TrollingForFish 0 Posted February 26, 2011 I thought SDBMW gave us a nice venue. We can't ask a shop to host every time. The El Cajon chapter of Star Touring meets at Motoworld in El Cajon one Saturday every month. Motoworld loves having them there as they bring in business and the Star riders always know where to meet. Maybe you could do something like that with SDBMW or FBC.

Uncle Champ 116 Posted February 26, 2011 Let me see,so Carguy and I get discriminated against because we choose to live far from ya'll? I vote for East County. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrollingForFish 0 Posted February 26, 2011 Let me see,so Carguy and I get discriminated against because we choose to live far from ya'll? I vote for East County. I do too. Lakeside is too far away, but Fun Bike Center isn't ? If you cut across either Scripps Poway or Poway Rd, it's not that much further. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
