Most people who ride bikes that I meet are interested in aviation. I know I am I'm particularly interested in Second World War German aircraft. History is something that fascinates me as well, so what other interests do forum members have. Do we have an expert in oragami or Spanish pottery perhaps?
Its been bikes for me for many years and particularly 70s Stroker classics
We also walk our dogs every day and that is a joy for us especially now that we have recently moved to North Yorkshire
Music has formed a massive part of my life ~ 60s, 70s, 80s and some more 'modern' stuff too :yes:
Mainly aviation, hold single/multi engine ratings, I/R, night etc.Been at it for over 40 years now, will give up next year as I always intended, I.e. no more medicals after 60, they become too much of a chore!
I like aviation. I'm also a keen walker/mountaineer and I'm also in the local Mountain Rescue team.
Foody :clap:love cooking love eating. Ale. :yes:
Football. Absolutely love it although like most at the top of the entertainment business tree, grossly overpaid.
Music/films/TV (I run my TV through an amp then into a nice 5-1 system, nice hi-fi system too, Technics CD player, NAD amp and Mission speakers). Favouright film Lord of the Rings (extended versions)Trilogy, favouright TV series The Soprano's :gunsmilie: Game of Thrones is brilliant and Black Sails is shaping up to be very good (plenty of lovely naked females on show :smiley:)
Walking & bird watching & camping (although haven't been able to camp this year).
I used to be massively into bike racing, but since WSB went awol and the BBC lost Motogp I've lost interest entirely. I also enjoy tinkering with bits and pieces, I've recently purchased a GPz900 engine which I hope to strip and use for a coffee table, some of the innards will be used for paper weights :banana:

Do you manage to fit a bit of bike riding in :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:
My interests are quite varied my main love is fishing I use to be out all weekends in all weathers till health issues slowed me down.
if not fishing I was on a bike :banana:
As Dave stated I love my music only playing it via HiFi ( yes I still have one with the deck on )
iPod and dab ( planet Rock )
And I love a good film sci/if war a decent story no sloppy crap. ( The more blood and guts the better.)
