    What do those of you that aren't fortunate enough to live in year round riding climates do for fun on the off season?

    I prefer trapshooting and snowboarding! I get a similar feeling from snowboarding that I do from ridin. Alone or in a group, I'm on my island!

    Just curious how others deal with the no riding season.

    For off season entertainment I watch as my wife tries to figure out how to use the remote controls for our entertainment system:bigsmiley25:

    This potato puts blocks under the legs on the couch so when I roll off it’s a greater rush.:D

    ahhh, now I know. Sounds like both of those activities might be a lot of fun_____to watch someone else do.

    Went for the first scuba dive of the year today...38*F water temp. Toasty in my dry suit!

    Problem is the diving season and the biking season are concurrent. What to do...what to do!

    I am amazed at the diversity of "our" other activities. We've got skiers, mountain bikers, scuba divers, cowboys, couch potatoes, zorbers and shale runners all with a "common" interest, the love of riding. I see it at events, rallys, etc. and it never ceases to amaze me. Now let's discuss occupations. I am an auto technician. How 'bout y'all?

    I do a LOT of brown nosing with the wife. :D Dinners, the mall, wash and wax her truck (she thinks it's hers) some painting around the house. this earns me some time to ride during good weather. :s

    Acer,
    I am a retired auto tech, 18 years and burnt my self out! Changed my path and now work in the automatic door bizz for the past 3 years. So I kinda stayed in the "auto" field.
    I did put on a few "pounds" sitting behind a desk. Feels good to have a wrench back in my hands now and then with adding some chrome to the bike!
