Bike
I've always had a strange fascination with the bike, stemming from the early days when mom's idea of a riding lesson was putting me on a bicycle without training wheels and pushing me down a hill. (I finally got on it one day and just rode, as odd as that sounds.)
Today, I am a sometimes-racer, shop-owner-wannabe, and all-around obsessive nutjob about bikes. I work part-time at a shop (in addition to my full-time gig) to help build knowledge, to keep the cost of my hobby down, to learn as much as I can about bike shop operations, and because it's damned fun.
I am currently studying the craft of frame building, as taught by Paul Wyganowski. I'm am starting with two frames -- a cyclocross rig, and 29'er singlespeed MTB frame. I already have ideas for several more, including a road bike for my future wife, and a track sprinter.
I already have a plethora of bikes. I don't see that number shrinking anytime soon. I will frequently post product reviews here in my blog. Additionally, I am going to start posting my race results (laughable), my training routes, info about my various bikes, and so on.
