I like to climb the local hills, also I like to see the new films with my girlie (our local has the 2-person sofas). I allegedly do tennis, but not for aaaages. I also play gran turismo a lot 8)

And I work too many hours a day :evil:

You lot?

    Well, very nice, but what ELSE (an actual thing this time) - are you working to a phd, or starting a cult?

    Even posting too much on internet forums would be okay!

    French classes, I've been learning it for years and am still rubbish. Do a bit of restoration on the Guzzi Le Mans that seems to have been in the garage for ever. Drink red wine and surf the internet.

    If truth were told, I don't do a lot of cycling...

    But when I'm not thinking about cycling, trawling ebay for bike bits or not on here, I work too many hours, watch a bit of telly and am learning Italian with a view to disappearing over there in the nearish future.

    Un bel giorno...

    Inline speedskating and nordic blading (inlines with XC ski poles) and a bit of running. Inlines good fun - complements the cycling, good for core body and leg strength too.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    I'm university student but this year I'm doing an industrial placement meaning I work at least 8-4 or 5 everyday, which actually involves a little work.

    This year my life entails:

    Play on the 360
    Play Counterstrike or Day of Defeat online.
    Watch sport on TV.
    censored about with my bike on the workstand.
    Watch TV series I have downloaded.
    I'm supposedly a rugby player, though I haven't play since the last season ended.
    I also seem to waste a lot of time on Facebook.

    Next year when I'm back at uni I hope to get out a bit more.
    I like bikes...

    astronomy: gazing at the stars, looking at the recent comet, chairing the local society, and so on.

    BTW, if you ever get the chance to look at Saturn through a telescope then don't hesitate. No uranus jokes please!

    Music, college work.

    Used to be really into Warhammer 40,000, and I've just decided to create a kind of city battleground and buy 2 Imperial Guard armies (One Cadian, one Catachan) to go on it, mostly as a display because I have nobody to play with...
