My main hobby is motorcycles. I re-built my first (a 1972 CB750 K2) ten years ago and have since had an '82 Kawasaki KZ750, two Yamaha V-Stars (650 and 1100), and a '78 Honda Gold Wing.

I think I'm pretty much done with older bikes for now, though. Here's my current ride, an '09 FXDC.

My longest trip so far was 1,500 miles, but I'm thinking about a big cross country trip for 2012.

Tried a lot of bikes as i had been off the road for a few years bike wise but the fazer was the one for me.
not that i use this much neither as the weathers always crap over here but we have loads of good twisty's down in wales and up in the Yorkshire dales.
Fitted a yosh pipe and had it dynojetted.
One thing i really hope to do is cross America one day either on a Harley or in a VW camper start in Cali or SF just take in Texas, Arizona go down through New orleans and the up through Florida and criss cross the whole country.
Who know if i win the lottery

Very, very nice! I know some folks who have done the cross-country trip on a Harley and they say it's pretty grueling but definitely worth it. I'm thinking of going from Jacksonville, FL across the South to San Diego, CA.

You know, I've been to England five or six times (just touristy spots, really) and each time the weather was fantastic. A bit foggy and cold in Windsor, but other than that it was just beautiful. Maybe I should buy that lottery ticket for you... ;)

Heres something i don't do no more and one for you FBS.
I still have these but they spend more time in the garage now than on the road.

My 63 KG took me 21/2 years to restore

My even older 62 Notchback this took only a few months as it spent nearly all its life in California

I love the work UK. I know how restoring can take up your life and your house. Used parts everywhere. Dreaming of what is not there in the correct year. Unfortunately the only thing i have left to keep is an Empi GT steering wheel. =(. I should have that framed someday.

Fantastic work Moonlight!!! I do knitting too, but my biggest piece was 10X10cm. :D I don't have enough patience to make one 11X11. )))
Sometimes I take the day off from sewing for people and make something not casual, it's not for sale, for hire only. I enjoy to do it really. :)
Here is one of my "Day Off" dresses. I will post some more as soon I do pics.

Oh the dress is beautiful!! I can't sew a lick. I've always been jealous of people who can put together such beautiful garments

Thanks for the nice words eveyone :) It sure is fun to see what other people like to do and all the different talents we all have :)

Kinda weird but in the past 6 months I kinda stopped all of my hobbies due to moving money issues and just growing bored.

Cars have been my hoby my whole life.
This takes all my money

I also like wheeling

Although I havn't been in a while

I reciently quit playing WoW I use to play with some close friends and such but Drama caused our guild to break up and other guilds I've tried are to serious.

And probably the weirdest hobby I have is looking at motorcycles. Don't think my family will let me ride again.

Computers (building repairing ect) Technology, Reading
