So, outside of Martial Arts - what floats your boat?.

Jason McCabe

Sort of agree with Cowzer. Outside of the MA world most time is spent with family


Other things I enjoy are

Rugby
Eating Out
Traveling
Watching MMA
Good music (everything from Jazz to classical) dislike that RnB $hit and Rap
Having a good scratch

Which CBR did you have?.

Over the years I've had everything from the old DT's and RD's (LC's and YPVS's) through to Gixxers and a CBR1000F, but of them all the only one I've truely loved is the Vespa.

Although I had a Honda Dominator 600 (600cc single), that was good old craic.. Here's a photo of it..



And me on the Dommie doing a safe over take

Its only a second thought on a blade, pity I don't have photos anymore but I used to wheelie the CBR1000F with my son on the back.

I've never rode a bike I couldn't wheelie, although some were harder than others - worse was probably the Suzuki 600 Bandit, had to dump the clutch. Simply won't wheelie off the gas, horrible bike.

(I'm a bike nerd!)

Jeez same here!
What have you got at the moment? I have a Triumph T900, had a blade before that but the engine blew up on it. No better way to travel!

I've only started getting into martial arts since January (doing street defense/ju-jitsu in Limerick now).

Before then, and to a lesser extent now, I'd have said:
playing in goals (soccer and GAA football)
writing poetry
playing my guitar and singing
reading
writing my blog
a bit of cooking
and spending way too much time on Boards

kravicecreama

the bike/scooter and martial arts thing is a bit freaky.Drove me mbk moped before I learned to drive a car in me 30's. Moved house twice on that baby and deliverd me pregnant missus to the hospital for me first born too.We got there late cause she insisted on driving.

I love to cook too.Made the big leap from frying pans and pots to casseroles this year.

Other than that I love to learn from reading. From historical battlefields, to computer programmeing to gardening.

God I am such a geek.

Other than MA, I play tag rugby, love cycling, a little bit of soccer, wakeboarding when I can....
Jamie Oliver cookbooks too though - big into cooking on a sat night. (And paying for it at training on a monday)

Sleeping is definitley another favourite

Reading, Mahjong, SEO (Search Engine Optimization), Games

SEANoftheDEAD

Outside of Jiu-Jitsu,

I play Bass guitar, was in bands etc, but not anymore.
Spend time with the misses.
TV & Movies, Netflix, DVDs, YouTube, once its a well writen show/film.
Listen to music, mostly heavy metal and rock.
Fan of Manchester United, speaks for itself.
Occasionly cook, i enjoy it when i'm motivated.

But Jiu-Jitsu and the club are my passion and i will always find some time during the day to reflect on what i've learned in training this week.

Except for karate i like swimming and walking my dogs. And playing my xbox all night every night (its awesome).

TrollHammaren

Outside of Judo, I have a good mixture of nerdy and manly interests! I like xbox, reading, writing, studying psychology/neuroscience, as well as hiking, climbing, and swimming. Still, nothing beats my ultimate hobby: Religiously stalking Doug Cartel.

Cbr 250, but 600 now-this is what I do for a chill time to my self.

Wheelies are hard to photograph while driving

All joking aside though I'm not that into doing them anyway, get my ego boosted bashing you regular

KathleenMcCabe

Apart from Kali, silat, and western martial arts - all of which i am deeply passionate about,
I enjoy...
Irish traditional music
Crafts
Guitar
Listening to music - trad - blues - rock - classical - big band - native american - etc etc
Going to gigs

And dreaming of what to do with my euromillions when i win the jackpot

I used to play a lot of football until I smashed my knee in 3 places and had to get it rebuilt. These days I still play once a week but its not serious. I am really getting into cycling - been at it for 3 weeks now and I completed my first 100km cycle so I was very pleased with that.

Also like drawing & painting, reading and I usually spend a lot of my weekend doing DIY, which is soon to change as I have my first child due on the 17th of April.

Oh, forgot to add, I love cooking... I find it really therapeutic.

smacl

Outside of spending time with the family, I'm also really starting to enjoy a bit of cycling, preferably rural and longer distances, and mucking about with bikes. Also love cooking, music, and a few beers and a bop with friends. My work is primarily software development in the geospatial domain, and I still get a great buzz out of solving complex geometric problems. A bit like getting paid to play soduko I guess.

laoch na mona

I like reading and sport in general i go cycling and i go to the gym a bit
I'm a nerd at heart i read history and fantasy books and I'm into politics
