Thanks Jeff, I just printed that story off to show my wife. For the last few weeks I have been toying with what I thought was crazy idea of starting an old bike repair/custom cafe build business.

I recently have been flooded with old bikes to fix by friends and family and in doing so, realized that I really enjoy taking on these small manageable projects (compared to airplanes that I currently work on as a side business).

It would be so cool to actually have a job that I love and am very good at. Saying to hell with my engineering degree seems scary, but man it would be fun.

I will be getting a free CB450 from a friend soon and will "cafe" it....If it generates interest, I may start advertising and see where it leads.
