Larry 10-10-2008, 10:27 PM I love bikes and brother thats a nice ride there. I'm dying to come down there and ride once I get my bike. Maybe I'll do some trades next season for one..lol
golfing here...every day i can possibly get out and play as many holes as i can get in before it gets dark
and I also enjoy getting out doing a little field herping as well
SAMHAIN 10-10-2008, 11:09 PM Larry I would love to have you guys out for some good old Mountain Rides! :D
BryonsBoas 10-10-2008, 11:54 PM I like reading Sci Fi & Fantasy and have opted to expand it to me writing my own book. Fishing , herping and 4x4s.
I use to stay in the woods hunting, fishing or trapping...Being married with 3 kids now I just don't have the time anymore...Now it's little-league games non stop pretty much year round -
SAMHAIN 10-11-2008, 12:22 AM Nothing wrong with doing the family man deal but I am old LOL mine are all 18+ and life begins again :D
nickstone 10-11-2008, 05:46 PM Thats a sweet bike. I'm usually fly fishing or hiking in my free time
CBMorphs 10-12-2008, 10:19 AM I really enjoy playing disk golf with my friends.
Larry 10-12-2008, 11:39 AM I really enjoy playing disk golf with my friends.
I used to play a lot of disc golf. I actually place pretty good in a pro-tournament back in the day..:D
Awesome bike, I just made my license and can't wait to get my own ride :D
I'm doing some art, rc planes and a little sports in my free time.
Varanus99 10-12-2008, 06:35 PM I got bit by the poker bug so I play a fair amount of poker. I have a group of guys and we try to get together like 1-2 a month but with family etc it doesnt always work. But we try to get a game at least once a month. I also play online and have been to a few tournaments at the local casino and some bars.
I used to be a huge comic book collector. I still collect but not nearly what I used to. Comics arent what they used to be. There are like 4-5 books I still buy regualrly. Ill also go to a show now and again and pick up some fill in Silver Age books. Mostly Spider-Man and X-men. I also have a decent collection of toys including Transformers, Godzilla, certain Star Wars, Dungeons and Dragons, various monsters like the original Alien figure, super hero/villian figures from the 70s and anything else that I think is cool. Immature? You said it.
Love horror movies and have a fair collection of those. A lot of zombie flicks and old school stuff like Reanimator and Evil Dead. But also like the more recent stuff like the Saw series.
When I do make it outside LOL I do a little field herping. Not a lot of snakes in my area and not a lizard to be found so far but I get to see some frogs, toads and turtles. And a few garters. Its nice just to get out and walk in the woods.
Coldthumb 10-13-2008, 02:56 PM I like reading Sci Fi & Fantasy and have opted to expand it to me writing my own book. Fishing , herping and 4x4s.
I'm an avid reader too.Last was Graham Han**** (though in recent years it has become more of an online research of history type thing for me)
Have you read much Robert A. Heinlein? ..grok?
Some of you have may have seen one of his books turned movie."Starship troopers" or "Puppet masters".(The best is yet to come,what with "Stranger in a strange land" and "The number of the beast" still yet to be made into movies.)
Good luck to you on your own creation/s!
SAMHAIN 10-13-2008, 03:13 PM Wow what a diverse group we have so far! I have some other Hobbys as well and also collect Horror movies!
I like building custom gaming PC's! My rig...

jknudson 10-15-2008, 07:56 PM My other hobby I'm pretty passionate about, and eats a TON of money is keeping saltwater aquariums...

75 Gallon

Right now I just have my 12 gallon setup really simply, since I had a move, and work what seems non-stop.
Otherwise, I like fishing, hunting, canoeing, herping, reading...
skm0308 10-15-2008, 08:28 PM I love hunting/fishing and shooting in general. Got my Curio and Relic license which means I can order guns wholesale, and y'all thought snakes were addicting!

Hey I'm a snow AND fishing fan. Here's a pic of the day I got my first float tube. I had to try it out. In Jan. I had to break throug a little ice to get out but it wasn't that bad with a pair of sweats on under my waders. And I live in Nor Cal too.

Chico_Reptiles 10-16-2008, 12:58 PM Nice, What lake is that?
constrictorkeeper 10-16-2008, 01:28 PM if your real patient, you can catch one up to 3 years after she blows.
a little tricky the first few times, but it grows on you.
you'll never forget your first, that's for sure.
also enjoy: scuba (is there ANYTHING better ? )
bonsai ( when you need to relax, this does the trick, anymore relaxed and they cart you away in a coma )
baseball cards ( "no really honey, your son wants these for christmas" )
running ( don't really enjoy it, but if i don't do it, i've gotta cut back on eating, so if i want to enjoy that, i gotta run...or buy bigger pants)

nickstone 10-16-2008, 07:25 PM Nice, What lake is that?
Sly Park/Jenkenson Lake. Not my favorite, but it's pretty close. At first I put my waders and gear on and tried it out in the pool at my apartment. Should have seen the look my landlord gave me when she saw me:rolleyes: she just shook her head.
TnT Reptiles 10-19-2008, 11:31 PM I love to get out in the boat and do a little fishing.
http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc78/manglerMCG/IMG_0582.jpg
Oh I forgot I sold my boat last month to buy more snakes. Guess I'll have to find something else to do.:rolleyes:
Love the reptiles but I also really enjoy sewing and quilting. Here are two of my most recent finished products for my step-daughters.

Wished we had more snow here and I would have a sled but these will do for now. Also have a Honda Rincon I love to get up in the mountains with and for hunting. Also major gun nut with a fondness to HK's......
