We have a dog, but not my dog. The family wuss we have was bought 7 years ago for the kids. For a year I've been without a dog of my own and though I spend an hour or two per day analysing others mistakes and their dogs, it's driving me nuts that I've gone without for a year.

Our dog runs a half marathon with the hubby every two days., walks the kids five times a day, he's basically the loveliest thing on the globe.

My dogs are always shitheads. They run off, get into trouble, they're nasty on and off the training fields, they give me so much attitude and they train the dogs I'm supposed to be training for me.

The best hobby in the world is to be a dog owner. I really want to be one too asap again (I have four dogs in training, one of them is living with us and then the family wuss but I need my own bloody bruiser dog that'll make me do a run and three walks per day!).

Lately I've gotten into road cycling more seriously. So much fun: speed and exercising (two of my addictions).

The last time that I was in Port Orange, I ran over to Orlando and brought home another Martin Sports Car Club autocross trophy for my collection.

If you really want an indoor distraction, pick up a 3D printer. You can spend the rest of your life downloading/printing useful items from thingiverse.com.....

This is a ridiculously low price for this. Anyone who's considered getting into 3d printing, but were on the fence, should jump on it

Man I miss skating! My body doesn't recover as quickly these days after being slammed into concrete or asphalt. I tried skating a 6' half a few years ago and couldn't hardly walk for a week after. Oh to be young again.

NEfan508 · 07-24-2019, 11:11 AM

travel!

Exchange rate to the dollar is great all around right now, That sounds like a snobby thing to say it's not, I enjoy it my family likes it too

Doesn't need to be a far off place, explore your city or region as a tourist, we took a duckboat tour of my city and walked the freedom trail on a tour in my home city Boston was fun and I learned a few things

im 30 with bone spurs in both my hips, but i dont think i will ever quit. i will have to get surgery eventually because the bone spurs make doing any flip tricks extremely painful.

VA Jay · 07-24-2019, 08:50 PM

Hobbies:

Collecting records (Former DJ)
Collecting and tuning fountain pens (Odd, I know)

i caved and bought a long board a few years ago. i use it for trips to various stores within a few blocks of my house where i can stay off main roads.

i remember trying to teach my son how to ollie about 10 years ago...that did not...ummm...go well.

qba335i · 07-24-2019, 10:00 PM

Hobbies:
- Scuba diving
- Sailing
- Working out (mostly weights now - used to practice judo and Muay Thai)
- reading
- traveling
- skiing

I had a nice group of skiers, divers, travel/party buddies, but as we get older people have GFs, wives and kids... and it's getting harder and harder to organize things.

Kelse92 · 07-24-2019, 10:55 PM

To some degree, these cars are all of our hobbies or we wouldn't be on this site!

I know for me it is, yeah my e92 is currently my daily driver, but its also my escape when I want to go to an HPDE, Autocross, or just on a back-country road drive.

Beyond that?
Spending time with my dog, she always puts a smile of my face and keeps me company. Plus good exercise when we go for a run on local trails.
Attending Dallas Stars games whenever possible
Foodie- I'm very involved in the local bar/restaurant scene and always checking on new restaurant openings and every pop-up chef event. One of the benefits of living in the middle of a big city like Dallas.
And also traveling whenever possible, usually though the trip is car related.

Up next to add to the list is building and off-roading a 4Runner, I'm looking forward to trying some new weekend adventures
