I got into racing motorcycles this year - I spent over 30K in upgrades before the first big accident. Still spending money upgrading and NOT riding. There is no limit to what you can spend in this hobby also - pro racers have a 100K into their bikes and spend another couple of 100K for a season of racing. Racing is also detrimental to one's hearing so the hobbies really aren't that compatible. Both hobbies have something in common...Can one really use the the equipment to it's full potential.
How often do you upgrade your other passions?
Here in audio-land, we read about the hot new amp or CD player and we think, "geez, I've got to find a way to get that." Or, the upgraded version of what we've currently got comes out, and loving what we have, we really have to have the new improved version.
How about other hobbies / passions? How quickly do you upgrade to the new watch model, the new bike, the new car? Are we semi-unique here in audio-land, or merely a pattern that exists everywhere?
