Hobbies

What does everyone like to do outside of their workplace? We'll open it up to things you would like to start as well....

For me:

- Playing guitar / bass/ drums: I do volunteer at my church on a regular basis. I have been playing bass for 20 years, guitar for 14 years, and drums for 1.5 years.
- Recording / Composing music: I used to do this a lot about 10 years ago, but still dabble from time to time.

- I have always enjoyed architecture and design as well. It has been a while since I have done anything like that, but it's peaking my interest again.

- Future Endeavors: Videography, Animations & 3D renderings

  • I do a lot:
    -Hanging with family, cooking most meals, playing with 4 year old and 12 year old
    -Mountain Biking
    -DIY anything: home improvements, car repairs, yard landscaping work, gardening, etc
    -the coolest thing i've discovered as a hobby as of recently, is the Gambler 500, look it up.

    In short the Gambler 500 is the most -LOW COST- fun you can possibly have with a motor vehicle. We go off-road driving in vehicles folks would have otherwise sent to a junkyard... and pick up trash along the way. The "Gambler" events typically take place over a weekend, with a Saturday night primitive camp, and consist of a pre-determined route-ish (set of gps waypoints, you find you own way to each waypoint) along a 200-500+ mile route, where the only rule is "Don't be a D!ck", and pavement is lava. This weekend, we just completed one here in AZ. We had 35 vehicles participate, and at the end of the trip, we had picked up at least 5 tons of trash from the desert and at a final location where folks left a bunch of shooting debris.
    Here's my terrible instagram account trying to document our madness. https://www.instagram.com/thunderturdaz/ also, here's a link to the 'OG" Original Gambler website https://www.gambler500.com/ the local 'chapters' are typically hosted as facebook groups.

    A couple of friends and I want to do the 24 Hours of Lemons at NCM (Corvette Museum track). We all know the track very well from running the motorcycles there for the last 5-6 years.

    the 24hours of lemons has a lot of rules and need for fabrication (cage, fuel cell, all glass removed, battery in cab i believe, helmet and neck brace are also required from what i recall). gambler events have no rules, aside from the single not being a d!ck rule. You might be interested in HooptieX, which is a 'run what you brung' offroad circuit race. It's a bit of 24hours of lemons mixed with the gambler spirit of spontaneity and the idea that all cars are capable offroad when zero focks are given.
