besides i am hoping this thread will hold enough interest for you all in the time i am away.

as you can guess i am interested in cycling. i tend to do between 1500 and 2000 miles a year. i try and do at least 1 week long ride a year. it is usually BRAG (Bike Ride Across Georgia) but missed it this year to go to a friends wedding, so i decided to do RAGBRAI (Registers Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa) again. hopefully this time i will not get run off the road by a bunch of clueless cyclist and slice open my ankle again and have to ride another 50 miles bleeding before i could find a place that could properly staple it closed.
i am also big into sailing. i have a couple of boats a small catamaran (nacra 5.2) and larger monohull (Kirie Elite 29CB).
i still play competitive Volleyball 2 days a week. i have not had a chance to do any outdoor tournaments this year. my weekends have been full this year.

I enjoy playing basketball, and even at my small stature (5'8") I've pulled off a dunk a few times. I'm starting to get into running, but that's definitely a love-hate. I used to do car audio/video installations while in college, so I dabble in that from time to time (my current '06 accord features the full list of unnecessities; dvd, remote start, a few 12" subs, etc.) Do kids count as hobby?

I enjoy horticulture, fishing, camping and hunting though I rarely get a chance to do any of them. Is drinking a hobby?

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky went hunting? Well anyway, Brasky decides he's gonna hunt down all four members of the Banana Splits. He stalks and kills every one of them with a machete. They all beg for their lives, except Fleagul.

Just last year I got into playing with a camera a bit, and this year I picked up a DSLR. I love getting behind a camera to see what I can come up with. My favorite subject? My Reef. LOL

I have always been into cars. I got my first Chevelle for my 15th b-day.
About 2 years ago I tried Texas Hold 'em for the first time. But that might be more of an addiction than a hobby now.
