Your Best Hobbies (other than Audio)


It would be interesting to know what other things interest the audiophiles who are obviously so passionate about hi fi and Audiogon. I am similarly obsessively interested in cars and motorcycles. What are your interests?

Eldragon - You are not supposed to drive an Alfa in the rain...they are just not designed for that. Why do you think the windshield wipers never work (at least on mine)? A true Alfista would have relocated to Arizona :-)
Racing bicycles, "road and mountain", playing my guitar "30 years", going to concerts "recording live acts", golf and most recently wine making.
Photography, shooting - including reloading my own ammo. Gotta be careful with the hearing protection, this could end the audio hobby.
Surfing! Growing up in Hawaii I started surfing when I was around 8-9. I've been surfing for over 30 years now and have no intention of ever stopping. My love for the sport is the main reason I live where I do. I've got 6 different boards and on any given weekend you can find me at the beach paddling out to catch a couple of round ones. I've also been known to skip work for a day or two if there is a really good swell. I also enjoy cooking and I do a lot of that too, so it's good that I surf otherwise I'd be as BIG as a Krell!
Gardening, model railroading, cooking, guitar (I hesitate to use the term for fear of being prosecuted for misrepresentation) playing and debating at the drop of a hat.
