What Other Toys do You Enjoy?
Recent acquisition, looking to lessen two wheeled risk factors:
After a couple of dune/desert trips, I'm getting in gear to hit this place, hopefully before the the Memorial Day rush:

I hear ya about wanting to lessen risk factors though. I should have taken up base jumping instead, then maybe I'd have less metal in me.

Same here. I had to give up a lot of hobbies after earning some hardware and too many injuries. I still have a street bike but dirtbike and quad are gone This was 2002, then I broke my collarbone a half hour later hydroplaning a pond.

Does it have to be mostly machine?
For those that enjoy their car stereo, imagine an acoustically designed room without road noise when listening to pristine vintage vinyl or digital sources through quality sources. A retro pastime. From thrift store level to million dollar systems, people that are into it can be very passionate "audiophools". Yeah, I know, my system is Schiit.

Yep...Ti from head to (right great) toe.
I've had a long string of bikes, on and off road, starting at age 14, then picking up again ~2008. Mostly riding MX and trails. Now I'm down to a '17 KTM 500EXC, which has been to Big Bend and Cloudcroft recently. I thought a quad might be a safer ride for back country adventures with the Wife, as mountain biking at elevation keeps getting harder, but that only works with her on the back, keeping things slow. Riding solo, I quickly realized that since I'm slow impaired, my tuned Yamaha Grizzly 700 quad may be the most dangerous thing I've ever thrown a leg over, including a horse, possibly one ex-girlfriend, in particular. It'll probably be up for sale soon. 2017 at COTA

Your system looks very audiophillic to me, but I'm no expert.

I cannot post mine due to forum guidlines, but recently added a Walther CCP to my collection. It's a great little plaything.
