Hey Tony,  Good question

I do a lot of lego now to keep the grey matter ticking over. 

I know a lot of people are doing fishing.  Just chilling and having a few Beers.  fistblump

..I keep looking at model railways. I never had one as a kid so there is no nostalgia there, I don't know where it comes from. Still, I follow YouTube channels about it, I pour over retailer websites...I think it is almost inevitable that I take the plunge. However it is frightfully expensive and I don't have much cash.

Good question.

It's funny because in 2018 I was riding park for the first time ever. All of a sudden I got old fast and the arthritis set in.

Now? well thankfully I have always been a bit of a nerd so computers are one of my passions. Like, big, showy water cooled builds and so on. And gaming of course, never got bored of that. I also take great pride in my stereo system and surround etc. I also like carpentry but alas like BMX I think this year will be my last hurrah at that too. Nowadays I have a CNC router I make stuff with. Mostly computer stuff.

I'm also going to get back into "Lego". Well, knock off Lego. I bought me a 4500 piece kit to build a roller coaster. Fully functional it is too ! as soon as I get back home after Christmas I shall begin on that.

Same! I have other hobbies and interests (snowboarding, cars, motorsports) but BMX in one form or another always rises to the top.  :daumenhoch:
