Seriously, I might start a business hosting bike building for corporate executives. It could make the world a better place, especially my world, where I need to make money to support my special needs daughter. Let the Marxists and deconstructionalist sneer and give condescending remarks. I do not care. If a sense of self righteous self satisfaction makes you ride harder or faster, go ahead!  Here, Ill get you started, I WEAR DOCKERS! Go to town!
    How much should (could ) a person charge to help a bunch of CEOs get along well and build some bikes?  Sounds like a nice way to spend the day to me, Art
 
I took my daughter out for a ride today. Nice Winter ride, Ohm Shanti Shanti Shanti snow
