Your other passion/hobby
New here. Before started biking I spent most of my time climbing, mostly rocks including a little alpine. What's your other passion?

Hiking, photography, kayaking, and being in the mountains.
Edit: Sometimes I can combine three of my hobbies.

No Limit Texas Hold'em. Last year I was playing 40-60 hours per week on top of my 40 hour work week, but I've moved away from such a late-night lifestyle. Now I'm more into running and reading literature and political discourse.

Boating. I spend every weekend doing that, combined with cycling. I do get funny looks walking around in bike clothes though

I suppose you could say my "hobby" is ****-****ing my wife's ***
...but then they definitely wouldn't let me into church.

It's ALL base...
That's funny. I just found those two sites last night. We just got back from Italy, and for some reason caffe americano now tastes like crap. 
I gotta say, all the bickering over grinders, tampers, semi-auto vs. manual, and crema just felt really familiar, thanks to my time on bf. Who'd have thought so much could be said about a freakinging cuppa coffee?
Or that the worst barista in the smallest coffe stand in the podunkiest little Italian town could pull a shot of espresso twice as good as the best I've had at Starbucks.
