Drive like riding a motorcyclist, though without the lane splitting of course.

If you are talking about hobbies, I am into aquariums when not riding. It is a nice contrast to the loud, fast and intense motorcycle experience.

I can stare at my fish for hours even though I have in the hobby for 20 years. Been riding almost as long at 18 years so fish came first and one day when I am a toppie and cannot ride anymore, I will still have my tanks.

Play golf, however not nearly as much as I did before I had the bike. The 11 handicap is more of a punishment now than pleasure.

When I am not riding motorcycles, I think...Rolling Eyes...about riding motorcycles.
I don't have a one track mind, the selector just seems a little sticky at the moment. Shocked

Oh yes, sometimes I sing too...!

I'm typing this from the community policing forum, so I guess this is something I do when not riding ...

Others include the usual braai/sport/swim/outdoors thing we all do ...

Also have 5 fishtanks, enjoy music, but I don't read (except magazines) much anymore Sad

Oh yes, there is ALWAYS a chore to do at home Sad

Hmmm... Most of the time is taken up with work, sleeping, eating and hobbies.

Hobbies, well my first love is always flying, mostly microlights. Then taking part role playing games (RPGs) and related activities online

I like any sport, travelling and outdoor stuff. Cycling (mostly mountain biking) about every day, golf, 4x4, hiking, rock climbing, windsurfing etc.
Also love reading and music.
