These are always fun....

What is some of your hobbies?

I'm a hobby hopper, I have several hobbies that I bounce from.

Right now I am getting back into bicycles... primarily E-bikes. I build my own e-bikes. I also have a Fuji Nevada 2.0 MTB that I hit trails with, it's 10 years old this year, but it still gets the job done. My newest e-bike is a Mongoose Malus fat tire, 48v 1500 electronics with 20ah battery, tonight I am putting new XT-100 brakes on it, and hoping to order a suspension fork in the coming weeks.

I am a huge gun nut, but right now I'm pretty satisfied with my collection. I have classic WWII guns, some modern sport guns, lots of bolt actions and some other fun ones.

In the spring I tend to get my RC cars out and play with them until I get tired of having to fix them. My wife absolutely hates this hobby, because it gets expensive really really fast and I tend to get burned out on it really fast. I have 2 short course trucks, E-maxx 3906 with brushless system, redcat everest gen7, a comp crawler that I built almost 15 years ago.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I am a huge offroader, been into jeeps and offroading since I could walk. I build them, beat on them, tinker on them... you name it... but that is more of a life style than a hobby...lol...

Turning my 13 year old son into a dungeous and dragons geek.
Good times.

Just ran the curse of strahd with him. Funny how the same campaigns I ran as a kid back in 1986 ... are still relevant.

Kayaking, riding horses, lap swimming (for exercise) ATV trail riding, shooting, watching football, reading.

Note: All of the above (except reading and watching football) is going to be harder with the grade 3 AC shoulder separation I just endured 2 weeks ago. :(

Curious how those are on hills? I tried mountain biking when I was younger but just couldn't build up the stamina for it. I told my wife some guys are built to run, and some are built to fight. I was NOT built to run (or ride bikes). LOL! But I wonder how that would be as compared to having to churn the pedals myself?

Well, my newest hobby is 4wheeling. I purchased onX off road app, and a rescue rope.
Looking for a local club because they say never go alone.

I ride mine entirely offroad on horse trails and it is a tank! I am 6', 255lbs and it will power up short steep climbs like nothing, and will do long grades at about 22mph with no pedal assist.

Very cool... no issues on horse trails, I presume, since it's probably as quiet as a normal bike?

MIM Fender Stratocaster. I prefer the MIM pickups.Found a deal on a new one ebay 3 years ago,its 2014 that was never sold partly becasue its left handed but was strung right handed JH style. I restrung it and been learning.
I always wanted to mess around with an electric guitar, electronics is also a hobby interest and I wanted to build an amplifier.So I got a guitar.
