    What non-Porsche interests do you have?

    I am curious what non-Porsche interests people on the forum have.
    Besides messing with P-cars I am also into guitars. I just bought a new Gibson acoustic online. Am waiting with great anticipation for its arrival.

    I enjoy the outdoors, hunting, fishing, boating, collecting surfboards (for use, not show), cycling, and skiing. I enjoy fixing just about anything and putting things together.

    Bicycling (paved trails mostly), a collection of Napa cabernet sauvignon (not to be mixed with driving), and an Alfa Spider (the wife always lusted after one, and besides, everyone needs a convertible)

    I've noticed a lot of vintage car guys are musicians i.e. Peter Egan. I play bass in a six piece party band. That and the 1971 911E are enough hobbies for now. I do find my day job interferring with my life though.

    I also enjoy guitar playing, among others I have a 96 Taylor 714. Also dirt bike riding; waterskiing and boating (that's what the Tahiti Tiger is for ); tinkering with mechanical and electronic stuff; making/modifying car parts with various machine tools; helping friends with thier car projects (nice to do something different once in a while); cooking.

    Gibson makes a nice guitar. Enjoy it!
