Im curious what you guys are up/hobbies when not messing around with scooters!

What other hobbies do you guys have??

I myself am a baseball fan as stated on the other thread. I follow the Orioles and am pumped for opening day against the BoSox this
monday 3/31/14. I have already take off of work :)

When Im not at my job a whole hour and a half away (US Gov, Alexandria VA) you can find me taking Italian classes in Little Italy (Baltimore), homebrewing (Ive done a couple wheat beers and a milk stout), playing the geetar, or keeping my physics up to date (Major in college). I also still volunteer to help my fraternity from college (about 15 mins away).

How about y'all???

I collect knives, collect wrist watches, love to watch movies on my home theater, and I love to cook when not working.

I work for an importer and distributor of car/motorcycle accessories and car care products...

Photography keeps me sane. I am a Band Director at a local Arts Charter school, and I'm also lucky enough to teach a Photography class as well. I wish I could retire (4 more years...) and teach just Photo and Scooter 101!  :D

I have several interest outside of my joy of scooters. They are in no particular order:
Fly fishing (fly tying, rod building, furled leaders) birdwatching, toy steam engines (mainly Jensens) and table top stirling engines, photography, z scale electric trains, and BBQ/grilling. The trains are currently in storage until my son gets a little older.

Oh and just in case the wife ever reads this, my main interests are my wife and kids.  ;D

When you come out here you can check out the two new waterparks Vegas has. We have Wet N Wild on the west side(not the same one that was on the Las Vegas Strip through 2004) and Cowabunga Bay in Henderson. The one in Henderson is more or less for us locals.  June is not bad before we experience the monsoon season in July and August.

Cooking, thrift shopping or garage sales, golf and spending time with friends and family.
You should try an oatmeal stout. So good but man it'll pack the pounds on.

My first love is Boating, current rig is 186 SeaHunt DC W F115 Yamaha pwr, great around the bay and gets me as far off shore as I am comfortable with, zomming out the Little Egg Harbor inlet is a blast.

Needless to say, fishing comes in on my hobby list too.

I learned to cook from Mom at 11, and have loved it ever since.

More recently I bought a drop top and enjoy heading to the shore in it, top down, radio on!

Well thos top my list but lately the most enjoyable thing is spending time with my girls, doesn't matter if we're island hopping in the boat, or  hiking in the woods, it's all good times.

Now I have to ask, since when does a Luigi say Ya'll?

I chase girls about...although I'm not what I'll do when I catch one.  They're fast and stronger than me.   :P

I enjoy soccer, I'm a writer and avid reader.  I like wines and have a small collection of them (the wife actually bought me a wine fridge last Christmas).

I've been playing video games since I was a kid. These days I play 1st person shooters and racing games. I run a NASCAR racing league on the xbox 360 called the Veteran Racers League.
Here's a video of my gaming setup.
