cars - i have reached the end of what i can afford. i could do track days or instruct, but i haven't felt like i was really learning much my past few weekends. i'd like to race, but it just isn't a good financial decision at my age.
bikes - mainly wanted one to save on gas (commute). since there are a billion idiots on the road at that time, that doesn't really work out (as i have found). i do not feel comfortable tracking a bike.
i've gotten back in to running, met a nice girl, pretty much stopped my partying habits, play very few video games, read a lot, spend free time getting better at my job (learning new things, reading books, etc)... i guess i'm just growing up and looking towards the future (house, family, etc). i still get to drive a sports car to work today; all is not lost.
