Waiting on my 06A and all the new experiences it will surely provide.

How long before spring anyway?

So, to pass the time, last weekend broke out the yz426 and rode my own sx track... First time in the saddle (dirt bike) since the last race in *April 2005* (gasp!) and boy oh boy oh boy was the ride fun.

Waay sore the next day, where did all these freakin' muscles from?

Nothing like it though.. maybe with rediscovering this lost love I CAN make it until spring for the 06A.

Sooo, my question is..

What lost loves are you waiting to rediscover?

Or, what other hobbies interest the FJR community members?

 
I build guitars and basses from scratch. I've got one guitar I'm building for my little brother. It was started over two years ago, and I've been so busy with work and *cough cough* the FJR, that I've seriously neglected his guitar.

There's something special seeing an instrument you made being played by someone who's good, and hearing music that you made possible.

Slappy the luthier? Who'da thunk!

I was into the RC hobby big time back east. Mostly cars. Spent thousands and lots of time on that crap. When I go down to the Surf Dog stand on the Bluffs of Carpinteria that overlook the Santa Barbara Channel and the Channel Islands for my weekly hit of loaded Dodger Dogs, there always seem to be a couple of guys flying RC planes. One guy recently had a scale jet trainer. Friggin' thing was awesome!

Oh no. I'm about to Google... NOOOOooooooooooooooo!

Oh, Surf Dog:
