What do you guy's do for fun other than work on your old trucks? Beside wrenching and driving my 65 I ride my Suzuki SV 650, mt. bike on my Marin FS Mount Vision, crank up my old stationary engines, or am restoring my 73 Rupp Roadster 2 minibike.

*LILRED66* · 02-01-2008, 03:41 AM

If I am not wrenching on one of my 4-5-6 Chevy trucks, I like to tailgate at the Chiefs games, ride waverunners, workout and read.

Tim64 · 02-01-2008, 03:52 AM

I play the drums in a rock n' roll band. I also drink a lot of ice cold beer.

Beer is a hobby right?

ryan913 · 02-01-2008, 04:12 AM

Drink beer! lol Work and ride my old harleys and 65 Cushman Eagle. Also drive around in my old convertibles. I also go to a lot of old tractor and car shows.

coolair · 02-01-2008, 04:42 AM

Hey..beer drinking is serious business - not just some hobby

62 short step · 02-01-2008, 04:43 AM

I like to ride dirt bikes & 4-wheelers, go to car & truck shows when I can. Hang out with wife and 5 year old son is the best!!

Reyals Bemus · 02-01-2008, 05:15 AM

The three greatest things that I do are:

1. Filmmaking
2. Building my truck/metal fabrication

and a very distant third...

would be dirtbiking.

63 & 64 Bowties · 02-01-2008, 05:24 AM

buying, restoring and ebaying Mustangs and Mopars. Here's this spring's project.

jchav62 · 02-01-2008, 06:01 AM

I play guitar and sing... I'm in a band called Camino Oscuro (means dark road) and we are a Spanish/variety band here in NM...

www.caminooscuro.com

If I'm not working on the trucks or playing music I'm hanging with my girl and our families...

ryan913 · 02-01-2008, 07:47 AM

I have a few old Mustang and Ford ragtops. They are great!

poorboy · 02-01-2008, 07:56 AM

Racing at the local dirt track.

PrerunnerRob · 02-01-2008, 10:22 AM

Dirt bikes, ATV's, building trucks, drinking beer with the friends, getting tatoo'ed(when cash allows!)and learning about chilled water equipment(chillers) for work. That and my awesome girlfriend take all of the time I have right now!

My big one is motocross(KTM 200SX). Then there are BMX and mountain biking(Cannondale Rush, Redline Monocog 29er, Kona Blast, DK General Lee). I've also been working on learning to pinstripe. I like restoring old motocross bikes(here's a picture of my '78 Yamaha YZ250). I also restored a '76 Bultaco Alpina 250. I've got a lot of hobbies, and I don't waste my time playing video games. I think way too many kids do nothing but play video games and never actually go out and find anything they are good at or like to do.

aggie91 · 02-01-2008, 12:48 PM

Here for the past couple of years its been updating the house we bought. I am active with my son's sports and we race go karts. This year it will be coaching my youngest son and my daughter on a 5-6 yr old coach pitch baseball team and my oldest boy will be playing baseball also. Both sons will be racing this summer and not sure when I get to do my "hobby".

Tomsriv · 02-01-2008, 03:19 PM

Boy, beer drinking seems to be the number one response. I am always one to buck stereotypes. Besides cars I go hiking and I like wine and cheese. Its a great contrast to my obnoxious gas guzzling beat up blue truck. Nothing like showing up for a wine tasting with grease on my hands.

Bishops Trucks · 02-01-2008, 04:04 PM

Hunting or fishing depending on the season. Car shows, home improvement, build furniture. I'm sure theres more but I'm drawing a blank right now.

NF65Fleetside · 02-01-2008, 05:35 PM

In my spare time I like bodyboard/surf, drink beer, fish, drink beer, play football, drink beer, fondle the gf, drink beer, travel, and drink more beer. lol
