Motorcycle road racing! It's pretty much my only "real" hobby. I'm not sure if it's because I don't like much of anything else, or because I can't afford anything else!
Very nice. Looks like you have a pretty nice bike. I've always thought motorcycle racing was one of the best types of road racing...and craziest.

Hey, junaitari, that's cool! I am thinking of getting a Losi 5ive-T 4WD in the future! We have a local track here, and we have a blast seeing them race!

Nice! I went with the Traxxas Stampede VVXL since I don't race (just bash) & parts are much easier to find around here.

Here I am, running away from the competition!
Yup, roadracing doesn't leave much money for anything else...or at least it didn't back when I was doing it. Fortunately offroad racing is much cheaper, plus I make a lot more now than I did in my 20's.

I race a 2007 Triumph Daytona 675. There are a few quirks that the Daytona has when racing, but over all I manage. It's almost stock except for an aftermarket steering damper, a Penske 3-way rear shock, and rear sets. I actually won two novice championships on it in 2012!
I really need to get aftermarket cartridges in my forks and a few other things, then I can be more competitive with the experts in 2014. I had a moment in 2013 and hurt my shoulder after my first expert race so I took 2013 off to heal up and work on my bike a little.
I actually ended up just working on the 4runner though!
Avid (some might say obsessed) surfer for 38 years

Three wheeling in the dunes
Never-ending home improvement (wife and I bought a fixer upper 5 years ago.)
I have too many hobbies..... Well, so says the wife.
I have grown up racing motocross and crosscountry, and have a yz250 (I'm a 2 stroke kind of guy. Long live the ping!)
The problem is that I work full-time, am a full-time grad student here at the University of Oklahoma, and am a father/husband, so time for the dirtbike has run short. I also play competitive sand volleyball during the summer and you can find me on a semi-professional tour whenever my partner is around. However, aside of the offroad scene, I really love to backpack, walk slacklines, play ultimate frisbee, rugby, hike, I was a collegiate tennis player and still play, play basketball, golf. and most of all...
I freaking love Disc Golf. Also, slacklining is awesome... It's my meditation.
I got into disc golf about 2 years ago, and I'm straight hooked. I was super judgmental of it before trying, but I tried it about two years ago and was immediately hooked. It's a hike in the woods while throwing discs (frisbee's) and hoping to get them into the basket in as few throws as possible. It's a freaking blast, and I can't see myself not playing from here on out. It will be a lifelong hobby...
Other than car mods and car audio, I am big into fish tanks, I have a 125 gallon, a 75 gallon, and 2 x 29 gallon tanks running right now
I'd like to see some pictures of those fish tanks, got both fresh water and saltwater?
Anyways my hobbies are driving, video games, building PCs, guitar and making music, shooting, fishing, hunting, picking up chicks, swimming, engineering, auto work, rock climbing, and being a bad ass.
