Obviously we're all into bikes else we wouldn't be here, but I'm curious what else are people on here interested in ?
I'll go first, (trying not to sound like a lonley hearts ad)

Music - Very varied taste. Have played the Guitar for many years, In the past I have also played the Violin and the Harmonica but gave up as I was really pants at both.

Exercise - Like the gym, swimming, walking, mountain biking and play a mean game of table tennis.

History - All self study, mainly 20th centuary political & military history
(Touring round France/Belgium on the SV later in the year hopefully visit some WW1 battlegrounds)

Cars - Just an all round petrolhead, if its got an engine and you can race it.......

Other Stuff:
Also very interested in film, comedy, cooking, wildlife, books/reading (mainly poetry and reference), drinking beer and eating crisps. I am also a qualified skydiver but haven't jumped for many years.

Walking...either with the dog or while on holiday, love cornwall & north wales.

Fishing... all types but mainly carp fishing, havn't been since moving (3yrs) been too busy.

DIY... yes it's wierd but i love it, can do everything except plastering (this is why no fishing).

Films... mainly horror or action films but will take the missus to see whatever she wants (girly stuff) if she can't go with her mates.

Bowling... Used to tenpin bowl a lot (European fives, nationals, travelling league, up to four leagues a week, practice on a friday & teach on a saturday), having a break from it all at the mo.

Cooking... like to cook most things, like fiddling & experimenting.

Eating... I love food.

Also the occasional drink, cycling, music, wildlife, ICECREAM.

Films are probably my biggest interest outside of biking, i'll watch / read / listen to anything to do with films. Favourite directors are Akira Kurosawa and Stanley Kubrick.

Drinking with friends, lots of it.
Rock Climing (both indoors and outdoors)
Hiking, i love the lake district.

Travelling - ive seen every country in Europe, and am currently saving for a new years adventure. Want to fly to sydney for new years, then new years day fly BACK to Hawaii see new year in again, then to LA, and back to london. Round world ticket will do it, which is £1600approx, plus spending.

I love my music, dont have a particular type, its just what ever tickles my fancy at any one time. Wide range and likes. I also play the drums and the piano (not very good on piano).

Im also looking at getting into Hang Gliding, im already EP rated, just need to get a few more hours in, and then sit some exams and get my CP rating.. then time for my own rig.

music and live bands. listen to so many styles of music its unreal.
rock to jazz. i like loads.

art and design and a bit of 3D and animation thrown in. typography, illustration, magasine layout, photography, printing and digital animation are passions in my life.
media is also tied in this this lot, films ect ect (i watch a lot of movies)

im also fairly good with my hands, so airfix models and such i do if im really bored.

thats all i can think of at the moment.
