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

(1) Fishing on the Chesapeake
(2) Keeping freshwater tropical fish
(3) HO model trains (w/my son)
These could also be listed as "hobbies that have mostly been crowded out by my biking hobby." I barely have time for one hobby, let alone four.
Surprised nobody has mentioned Bike Forums as a hobby.

My wife and I are into "being out there"! Whether it be cycling - both road and mtb. Or sea kayaking, snow shoeing, hiking, backpacking. We are both pro photographers so a camera is always within reach. The Pacific Northwest is an AWESOME place to live and "be out there"!!
Seattle Forrest it would seem we have a lot in common!

nothing too unusual: watching soccer/cricket, computers/tech, gaming, listening to music (and playing - piano, drums, guitar), movies, reading, food, beer, travel

There are a number of Bauhaus styled watches of which the Stowa is possibly the cheapest. If you're interested you should have a look at the Nomos Tangente and the Junghans Max Bill.

I'm a bass guitarist. Hence the user name... Been playing almost 25 years. My current bass is a Conklin 7 string with Bartolini preamp and pickups. I use Mark Bass amplification and have a custom made cabinet.

I like to fly fish for steelhead. I float the Deschutes river several times a year and camp and play guitar. I've played guitar for 25 years. Mainly play classical now but I still love a good Strat and tube amp. That is my 1980's Alumaweld drift boat and a 1996 Dake Traphagen Classical guitar.
This was last week on the Nehalem river in Oregon. Got this 12lb fish on a swung fly leech pattern.
I have a modest guitar collection, and that is my dog Ozzy. This pic is a few years old. I have a few less electrics and a few more classicals now.
I occasionally fly fixed wing aircraft and enjoy photography.

Seattle... pic1 is that the Gold Creek drainage?

None of them are from Gold Creek; all of the pics are from within North Cascades National Park. The first one is the Napeequa Valley, a 10 to 13 mile hike, with 4,200 feet of altitude gain. The second is Azure Lake on the side of Mount Terror.
