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???

Actually I got out of the hobby for several years because it was too sedentary. I began mountain biking about eight years ago and studying a form of Tae Kwon Do styled after the philosophy (intercepting fist) Bruce Lee taught in his studio. I love to get out there, sweat, and get sore. Then I come home and plop down in front of the stereo.
Women are only a hobby when you use them, not when you care about them.
I don't know how physical it is, but I'm getting a big American made motorcycle. It will hopefully take up some time and give some exercise.
Clueless, does titanium really ride that much better than my Klein aluminum?
I rode chromoly for a couple of years before switching to aluminum. At 6'-3" and 235 I didn't trust the flexier frames. I only ride mountain bikes but I end up on the road a lot. I like to commute with them too. I started with a GT Zaskar which I rode a few seasons and then went to my first Klein. The next year I bought another and have had it for almost three years now. A personal record! Due to my size I have found the aluminum to work much better and I don't experience the pounding some riders comment about. Again probably a size issue. Now I'm down to one bike but yesterday I bought an American made (no not a harley, it's really American made) Victory cruiser. I can't hang this from the ceiling in the garage though. I guess this means whoever is coming to Vegas for CES should bring their bikes.
CDE I've been pretty lucky I guess. The shop where I buy has found buyers for me a couple of time because they want me to buy the new one. One I sold through the local paper, and one I gave to a guy who needed it but could not afford it. I sold the last one to my sister-in-laws brother. So I don't have any good advice for you. Sorry. Jla's post looked promising though.
