Hobbies

Just out of interest what do fellow 3 series owners do with their spare time?

I'd imagine golf would be fairly high up on the list?

Mine are in no particular order

Urban photography especially abandoned buildings, cars, machines etc mostly shared to Instagram.

Football, watching, not playing and in particular Liverpool.

Youtubing I have a channel of over 300 videos some with thousands of views some with single figures.

Drinking, mainly craft beers and red wine.

Used to do a lot of climbing, mountaineering, kayaking, skiing. Getting old and lazy now so mainly golf is as sporty as I get, with sporadic trips to the hills only.

And then mainly it's cars, cars, cars...

Saw your avatar and was gonna ask....

Lifelong LFC follower here.

Also an avid cyclist. I combine these two passions and organise an annual charity cyclo-sportive ride in memory of the Hillsborough 96.

http://www.rideforthe96.co.uk

Have raised over £50000 in the last 4 years. Most years the funds are split between Alder Hey children's charity, Jamie Carraghers 23 Foundation, and the Steven Gerrard Foundation.

Through doing this I also met a group of lads who were planning on running from Hillsborough-Anfield, and got involved to help them organise the annual Hillsborough-Anfield Run, planning their route and joining them on my bike as navigator.
We've now setup the annual Run for the 96 5K run around Stanley Park.

It's really rewarding to be able to do something, however small, in memory of the 96 - more so since I have friends who were there and lost loved ones.

Other stuff I do....

Sim racing on PC
More casual gaming on Xbox
Music production (mastering by trade but production as a hobby - used to run drum & bass and hip hop record labels)
Watching boxing and MMA

Probably all about to change as were expecting our first child in June!

Another life long Liverpool fan (see my user name) and main stand season ticket holder since 1986 - although this is now usually used by my mum who has more free time and no longer has little kids.

A bit of golf now and again.

Cars - detailing (aka cleaning very meticulously to the best of my abilities!), and changing regularly!

5-a-side football.

Gaming PS4/Xbone

Avoiding work as much as possible.

Well it used to be cars, hoons and eurotours for me, but the arrival of two boys within 14 months of each other put pay to that.
Now its looking at cars, general geekyness, a bit of mountain biking when I can fit it in and the rest of my time is spent with the nippers - remote control ride ons and trampolines are FUN
