Today was our last day with Mike's brother (he's here from Canada) so we went into Central London, saw Big Ben, Houses of Parliament, walked the South Bank, crossed the Millennium foot bridge, saw St. Paul's Cathedral and then wandered around "The City" (financial district) ending up at Leadenhall Market, Lloyd's and the Gherkin. Battery died in the camera so ended up taking the second half with a blackberry...

Well its obvious that he wont get someone from Florida because the job has been posted in our Florida plant for the past 4 months and they did not get any resumes. Then they extended the invitation to those of us in the Michigan and New York plant and now they have interviews but it just sounded like he didnt want any of us.

Temps got up to almost 40 (fahrenheit), so I took all four bikes out for a spin to charge up batteries. Very hard to stay out of salty meltwater. I had hook up the hose and give one bike a wash, it was so coated with brine. Three of the bikes started right up, including Mrs. Stark's BMW which hadn't run since December 11. :kicking:

But getting the Bonneville started was a major production (ya listening, Totalmotorcycle Mike?) Involved pushing it from the storage building around to the garage, putting a space heater directly under it for 90 minutes, then cranking and cranking and cranking..... Bike does NOT like cold weather.

Felt great to ride.

I'm envious of you guys that are starting to see signs of spring. Here it is snowing again/still. My bikes are still under cover hibernating for at least another 6 weeks or so :(
