Besides Cars: What other kind of hobbies are you into?

[Fiat88]

I enjoy numismatics aka coin collecting. Mostly 18th and 19th century U.S. coinage. Been doing that for around 7 years actively. Here's a great site:http://www.pcgs.com/

I like metal detecting also. You can call me a Geek!

How bout U's?

I used to spend most of my free time remodeling my rental houses. After 34 years of being a landlord I finally sold them all. Lately I have been remodeling my own house. I have learned many skills over the years and I find working with wood the most rewarding. I built the little model railroad shanty on my picture page a few years ago. I have also done some display cases for my wife's doll collection. I also like to do stained glass but I haven't done anything in years. Maybe I'll get back to that someday. http://www.cruzin.us

Racing mountain bikes, sailing (currently no boat though), and laying around by the apartment pool. Ok, maybe that's not a hobby, but I spend a lot of time on it.

What gave me away,

Cars are my biggest hobby, but the FIAT also goes well with weekend trips, I think that's why my wife likes it so much compared to our other old cars. I also spend alot of time remodeling our new house, (spent a fair amount on the old one too), but I wouldn't really call it a hobby, mostly I'm just too cheap to pay someone. I'd Like to spend more time traveling, do some autocross and some fishing. I'm trying to avoid the streetbikes, but a dirtbike sure seems like fun. I have some nitro RC cars that I haven't used for at least a year and some guns that I haven't shot for even longer. I could retire tomorrow and never be bored, (35 so I've got a few to go).

Man I like doing so much stuff, I don't have time for it all. I'm semi pro shooting pool which I haven't had time for lately. I love to fabricate or build things. Hanging out in the garden and making the yard nice. Spending time with the kids. We go Kayaking, bike riding, and what ever else we can afford. I collect coins and have metal detectors. I haven't found my fortune as of yet. When I was in High school. I was on the rifle team. I love to go to the range and shoot. I have a Harley that just waits for me to get on it. It's been about a year though. I collect fine art paintings. And most of all spending time with my wife who also helps with most of the projects. We love to hang out barbecuing and fire pitting with friends and family.

I'm about to head to an RV/Marina on Northern Vancouver Island with the 5th wheel and boat and (hopefully) catch a whole bunch of salmon and halibut. Unfortunately, the Fiat can't come on this trip - I have to get a buddy to bring my boat up as it is as I'm pulling the 5th wheel.
Apart from RV'ing and boating, my wife and I are fairly big into yard work on our 2 acres. I used to do a lot of golfing, but have had to put my game on the shelf until I can get my knee replaced - sometime this fall if all goes well.

I also have a weakness for motorbikes. I've got a '71 Honda CB750 that I've built a vintage racer out of, and I've been looking at BMW bikes lately... The only pic I can find of my bike was during one of its awkward stages a couple years back, but you get the idea. It looks better now.

I also have an obscure interest in vintage espresso machines. I love them, I give them names... I work on & resale modern ones as well, but I'm all about the old lever activated & propane powered ones. I tend to fund my Fiat habit by selling espresso machines...

I'm also a sailor, and I'm out at the local yacht club quite a bit. I've got an older 16' Hobie Cat catamaran, a 15' Coronado sailboat, and a "Laser" sailboat. The Hobie Cat & I achieved warp speed on the lake this past week: my god, I knew they were fast, but day-um!

[77SportSpider]

If you think that Hobie's fast, find someone to take you out on a modern F-18 or Nacra 20. When you pop the asymmetrical spin, it's absolutely insane! Also heard A-Cats are wicked fast, but haven't had a chance to sail on one.

wow you are a nascar racecar driver / owner

Fair number of sailors here. I've been sailing for nearly 40 years. Used to race a lot on various boats, raced a Santana 20 in late 70s and early 80s. Now I'm more into the full cruise mode with a Catalina 380:
