Have we made any new venue plans for Monday's Italian night? So far the weather is looking good. Might I suggest the bar "The Happy Gnome"? It has a great menu, (and beer selection). It also has a large shared lot with the St. Paul Curling club. Downside would be a further trip for you West siders, (sorry Ulf), and I am not sure they have a big table to take over.
Their web site :

Otherwise, does anyone have a Twins schedule?
Oh boy, Oh boy is that this Monday? The twins are playing at detroit. But if we wanted to move it to Friday there is an evening game then.
I like the happy gnome I met my wife there.
Do you guys curl? One of my coworkers curls there, been trying to get me in on it, might cut into my icefishing and beer drinking time tho [bacon]
I have a friend who curls there. The regular season ended, but now they are having the newbie tournaments. Team of two seasoned pros and two amateurs. Good time to test the frozen water...so to speak.
The Happy Gnome is a great place! I will happily ride to Selby to meet you guys.
Unfortunately my bike is not back in service yet so I will have to use the 'burb for transportation. Fred and his merry crew at Silverback is working on the SS.......Hopefully soon.

Should we let Monstergirl decide it?
I'm in for where ever everyone else goes.I'm on the west side of town to and St Paul is as easy anywhere as downtown sucks at that time of night with or without any events going on.I don't want to step on any toes but we do need to find a place that works with good food and parking.Just say where and I'll be there.
Sounds fine Folks. I am trying to get us hooked up at a new place. I have options from some listers that I am pursuing. More Italian feel. I think Grumpy's is out for now. I am not sending to my list until I have a new venue. So this one will be just DMF'ers. Gabe and I will make this one and we will hopefully have some good racing news.
so the "The Happy Gnome" it is for tomorrow? 6ish-8ish?
btw:
I think Flameburger in columbia heights would be a good place for IBN.
Sorry guys..I missed it and it wasn't due to the Twins this time. Work got in the way and i couldn't get over to Saint Paul in time. Basically I am just wondering if I missed anything....or was it just drinking and conversation [beer]. let me know if anyone is planning on riding sometime soon. I might be able to go out on Saturday for a little while in the a.m. or early afternoon if anyone is interested.

Westy, it was a great time, wish you could have made it. Roseguy brought his new toy and handed me the key...I didn't know that his data acquisition would record my wheelies :-X
Nice bike John! "ring, ring"
It seems that June 1 is a monday. Does that mean we are going to the gay frog again this month or is there somewhere else that appeals to the group?
The street in front of The Happy Gnome is under construction and will be torn up for quite some time.
I have a customer across the street and get regular construction updates.
[wine]
The lot seemed to be a great spot last time.
June 1st is a Monday. I say back at the gnome until we develop a new plan. I like it there. This month I will float it to my email list and see what happens. I know that the gnome street is under construction but the parking lot isn't. Hopefully the weather stays nice. See you there.

Any idea on a time?

It starts at about 6:30... After a few minutes in the parking lot admiring bikes we head inside for some frivolity, food and drink.
I should be able to make it; it depends on when I can get out of work.

Are you bringing Mrs. MinnesotaMonster?

Damn right you don't have a choice.
Unless anyone objects that is.

I don't think there will be any objections. Mo doesn't like girls but he tolerates them ;D

sounds like a good reason to get that tribal/barbwire butterfly trampstamp that you've been wanting. [thumbsup][bacon]

I'm gonna go to the gathering tonight.
You and Mrs. M. wanna meet somewhere near WBL and we can all ride down together?
Yeah, that'd be great, thanks! PM sent
Thanks bluemoco, that'd be great:) Looking forward to meeting you and everyone else:)

Pete, do you have any books left? If so, bring one...I'll bring a pen ;)
Sigh.
My bike's intermittent starting issue just got dramatically worse when I tried to leave for lunch... won't be able to make it tonight unless something dramatic happens. Here's hoping that the good old "running start" trick will work, or I will be stuck at work for a long time and won't be able to make it tonight. [bang]

If you make it down I will volunteer some else to push start you.

Sure - I've got a few on hand. I'll bring one tonight. [thumbsup]
See you at about 6:30 or 7, depending on how long it takes Mr and Mrs. M to get going. ;D ;)

LOL!
It looks like it's a dead battery and it's most likely entirely my fault. Heh.
If I make it tonight, it will be in my RX-8 and not on my Monster. Oh well. :/
Does anyone feel like riding with me from Uptown?

You can jump start a bike...just so you know. And if you get it there, we can help you get it started again [beer]
I'll be driving the cage and pulling a trailer so I'll try to remember to grab my jumper cables.
Newbie coming for the first time tonight. If you see a slightly nerdy guy with a new 696 looking like a lost puppy....that's me. [cheeky]

Where ya coming from? A few of us are going to meet up near WBL and ride into St Paul together. You're welcome to join, if you're close by. :)
Doh! I'm now out in the WBL area but I can't make tonight - but if the pre-First Monday night get together in WBL happens again, I'll join you guys for the ride out.
It was very nice to meet all of you tonight.
Hope to see everyone again soon!
[thumbsup]
It was a pleasure meeting those of you that I did tonight for the first time. Hopefully we see you guys again. [beer]
