Sport vs Hobby? A sport is when you participate in organized competition. A hobby is when you do something for the love of it. Not organized competition and not professionally. I.E. pretty sure drag racing a car at test and tunes is not a sport. It’s a hobby.
knotscott: I bought a Bob’s CNC router last month mainly to build speakers. Lots of my hobbys bleed into each other. So for woodworking... I’m already there.
Also into photography. First camera was an OM2n. In fact combining hobbies, I am building drones with photographic capabilities now. So I have that covered. But no boats. Growing up in FL everyone else had one so I didn’t need one.
And actually my best century was at 22.3mph. That’s really not competitive professionally. Not bad for a hobby though!

People need to just slow down a bit sometimes and smell the roses.

Its still nothing to do with it. Willing to bet that however many road miles he rode not one was racing. Every racer knows average speed has nothing to do with it. They all cross the line with the same average speed. Sometimes depending on the race the group even gets the same time. Only one however wins. Racers know this. Well the ones who have actually crossed the line first anyway.
