Title: Aside From Motorcycles... What Else Are You In To?
Post by: J6G1Z on August 29, 2013, 03:15:40 pm
What other hobbies or interests do you have?

I like most things that go Fast or go Boom!

I have multiple toys that go boom, but  I'm into power boating with my 22 foot Boston Whaler camping in my GMC Savanna van and playing with my RC helicopters http://ascot500.com/Smileys/default/smiley.gif

As far as things that go BOOM... I really like the older stuff, like single action revolvers & lever action carbines/rifles. Plus just about anything that shoots the 22LR. I'm not a black rifle or Glock kind of guy. I can appreciate the modern firearms & I'm impressed with what the manufacturers are doing in the compact concealed weapons market. Some of those mini 9mm, 40S&W & 45acp pistolas are amazing.

As far as things that go fast... Just about anything goes. If I can feel the sensation of acceleration, then I’ll dig it.

A cyclist, I ride daily to work. My current rides are a ti single speed MTB and a fixed gear track bike. No, I'm not some Johnny-come-lately hipster! I've ridden single speed and fixed since 97 and used to race MTB seriously. I was ranked top five in the state for years. I also love to skateboard. I ride vert as much as I can. (my wife doesn't know what she hates more, My love of motos or my obsession with skating. Hahaha)  I also snowboard and love to hike and backpack. I've also been a guide on the side. Hell I love most things you can do outdoors! I know it's moto related but I also do design and proto machine work for guys that build custom motorcycles on the side.
