Most of my hobbies involve a throttle. Aside from cars my favorite stuff to do is water ski, ride my Yamaha WR426 dirt bike and play guitar. Going to swap meets and building stuff in my machine shop also fits in there. I'd like to do more with wood but I don't have a lot of free time these days.
 
Oh man, I'd love to cut up that glass on my ski!!!

X2 skiis are my favorite thing about summer, and 1badgtx do you know a woman named barbara olsen? she was my chem teacher last year but she often goes to the rubicon trail to offroad and such with her husband, didnt know if you knew the name
 
I have way to many.

Like to fish, shoot guns, ride horses with my wife, buld model planes, guitar, RC cars, looking for indian artifacts around my area, and the bigges most expensive next to the Mopars is going out to Glamis in the winter time to play in the sand.:headbang:

Where ya fishing at?
 
My hobby is driving my wife out of the house by plugging my guitar in, crankin' up the volume on the amp, & performing my classic rock music for an audience of one (my own mind)........ ( I WAS going to be the next Jim Morrison, you know..... 40 years last month )
 
If your layed up and cant get around why not try building a model car kit??? you can put easy 20 hours into it!!!!!
It's GOOD Therapy
 
I am probably mostly into riding two wheels on the road and I am starting a collection of some semi rare jap bikes. Love the early yamahas. I have a sled that I picked up last year, but need to find some open spaces to let her rip. Having a Mopar is probably the most fun thing I've been into. I guess I really don't have hobbies as much as I want to do as many things as I can before I leave this earth. I'm just getting back into lifting and that feels good. I need to take off a few lbs. I have a business that is front and center of my life but it does afford me more time than most people have and I am very thankful for that. Built a house in 06/07. Made some end tables. Refinished some hardwood flooring. Done roofing, siding, plumbing, concrete. My next big goal is to build a zero energy home. I hate the utility companies.
 
Did a lot of sailing on Texoma when I lived in Fort Worth. Sailboat and motorcycles are gone but I still have my trombones (the big band I play in just recorded a demo, play in a brass quintet and community band too) but my favorite hobby other than my Six Pack is driving my wife crazy and making her laugh!

like Meeps most everything i do has a throttle. 89 switzer 23ft. 454 cu. in. approx 70 plus mph., 1995 ultra classic H-D #163 of 2000 collector series made, 4 wheeler, 1953 royal enfield 500 single cc. m/c, use to do a lot of serious sledding, 6 to 8000 mi. a year until i had a bad fall and smashed my hip all to hell. somewhat like you i spent 6 mths out of a year in the hospital on and off.
winter months i travel south for golf and visiting family and friends. i didn't realize i was so busy untill i semi-retired and tried to keep pace with my mind. Put a Grin on My Face each and Every Day.:headbang::icon_weed:
 
Besides rebuilding cars, motorcycle riding, riding four wheeler, snowmobiling, racing and building vintage race sleds, carving logs with my chainsaw, landscaping the yard, Making litle metal choppers with junk parts, painting pictures on old saw blades, weightlifting, no boats though even though theres about 100 lakes close to my house. Sunk way too many of those things already. Thats about it.

- i have one race sled left if your interested. it placed 1st. or 2nd. at hay days in its time. 650 triple A/C. some other asst pc's. pm me.

I have a seperate room attached to my garage dubed as "The Airplane Room"! I have my large R/C airplanes in their.
I also enjoy the motorcycle a couple times each summer.... it sets more than I drive it!
The wife and I ride bicycles every night for an hour or so after the temps go down.
 
You're about 300 miles north of me....and most of my hobbies involve a throttle too lol. Trail bikes, some boating, drag racing...did woodworking for years until I got tired of breathing and cleaning up all the sawdust....
 
Old John Deere tractors and equipment to play with. Tractor pulling in the summer, snowmobiling in the winter, getting into the vintage sleds also, just not enough time and cash to get it all done.
 
If not working on my 71 Runner, I love to the Great Lakes, Erie for Walleye and Ontario on New York for Salmon.
Motorcycle touring was a biggie for me but that is gone now.

Been Golfing more this year.

Use to hit the local wineries

The one constant is music. I do not play anymore but love to see live jazz and blues about once a month or more.
