Long bike rides, Fishing, Boating, Water skiing, Snow skiing

There are days i will wake up and just want to ride, so will dress for the weather and jump on bike and ride with no place in mind or for just a cup of coffee somehwere down the road. i love to fish, usually for bass, but just being out there with peace and quiet is relaxing. i do alot of boating because i enjoy being in the sun and on the water, my parents started me at this at a very young age and i enjoyed it so much i got into waterskiing, first as a recreational passion then progressed to go pro but was never in the right place at right time to do this so kept it at a high functioning recreation. As for snowskiing, i spent my growing up years in the north country, where i would downhill snow ski every winter and even tried my hand at downhill racing, and once the snowed melted i was back in the water water skiing. i did this faithfully every year for many years. Now that im older, i rely on the more calm ways for my entertainment ie: Riding bike, fishing, boating, put the skiing parts behind me.
