Audio as a hobby


The only problem with audio and music: it a very passive hobby. Of course you could ride a stationary bike or even have sex while listening to music . But then audio/music becomes sort of secondary. So the question, do any of you have an active, non-passive hobby that is the equal to audio/music??? Just curious, or all of you just couch potatoes???

Why are there so many bikers on this forum? We should start a bikergon, althought I doubt it wouldn't be nearly as interesting as audiogon.

Speaking of active sports, I was fanatical about basketball and baseball. But a slight knee injury has banished me from playing competitively, so biking is my only real work out now.
As I said in my last post, my other hobby is scuba diving.
When I am not working, or sitting in front of the stereo, I can usually be found underwater.
Diving has allowed me to travel the world, and gives me a lot of things to dream about, when I listen to music.
I have a lot of videos of our trips, so I get visual stimulation at the same time.
SEX,CYCLING,had a conalgo,campangolo components till I got hurt.Did about 200 miles a week,it can be insance riding along with crazy drivers.Photography,coin collecting,so off most of that though.still have my bike though but I sold the Conalgo.I collect watches and my wife and I go dancing at ROSELANd yes we still dance the HUSTLE and mambo.Also my wife and I roller skate,not inline,the old school skates,quads.And now that I'm a homeowner,have to do the gardening and other things to keep the place nice for my audio.Audio is not passive if youre into listening to LPs.Cheers.
Good point on the skiing - that's my winter avocation. Working for the 4th largest ski area operator in the US gets me plenty of free slopetime when I can take it. Eastern-based but we have resorts out west so that's where I go when I can. Heli-skiing in canada - that sounds sweet (insert jealousy here). Best for me so far is a couple trips to Grand Targhee, snowcat skiing - that ruled. Jackson Hole is right around the corner so logged some vert there too while I was out west.
