Aside from being a committed cyclist, what's your next biggest hobby?

I am an HPDE (high performance driving event) instructor for the past 12 years. Mostly teach for BMW clubs in the mid-Atlantic and Northeast US. I teach at tracks like Watkins Glen, Mid-Ohio, VIR and of course the 3 circiuts at Summit Point Raceway, my home track. I teach in-car, skid pad and classroom instruction.

Apart from bikes, my next passion is racing cars. I race a 1997 Civic in local races here in Quebec and Ontario as well as lapping and teaching for the Porsche Club of America. My summer's are divided between bike racing and car racing and lapping. Winter is too long...
I am in the process of changing the motor in the Civic as well as painting and fixing a few things to make it a little nicer.
I have a 04 GT3 that is track prepped that I teach and lap in. I may finish caging it this winter and race a couple of PCA races this summer with it...if I can get over the fear of being taken out with it.
I have in car vids of both cars if anyone wants to see them.

Motorcycles. I'm on my third motorcycle now, a 2012 Ducati Monster 1100 EVO I bought back in June. I have 4500 miles on it already and it is a blast to ride out in the local mountains and canyons. Guess I'm just attracted by two wheel vehicles.

Having a real boat to launch from would be very helpful! I always enjoy watching the guys with the rc sail boats, but I have too many hobbies and toys for the wife's liking. She's always trying to get me to sell my nitro truck since I haven't taken it out lately.

I'm currently running 2500lb bags,1 compressor,5 gallon tank,8 valves,and 6 switches. I need to buy some steel plate & fab up some rear shock tabs though. It's a nice grocery getter..

I program SQL, SSIS/SSAS.
Have a few guns.
Do some go-fast and fuel/oil filtration stuff for GM diesel trucks.
Also into small aircraft... haven't done any flying in a while because it's gotten too expensive.
