Summers here, and for me its the UK, more specifically Wales for play time. So for me, its surfing, kitesurfing-to satisfy carving and edging needs and then mountain biking for getting me down mountains as quickly as possible and creating major smiles
Whats every one doing?

Iceski, ditto, except the kitesurfing.
Surfing the west Coast of Ireland around Lahinch (Co. Clare) - good waves of late, 6' glassy Crab Island the other day, good swell due at the end of the week too from the leftovers of TS Alberto, then more from the tail end of TS Beryl a few days after that too i` reckon (though not on the forecasts yet)..........

Nice, we had 2-3 foot and glassy here for one day last week. More would have been nice. A good mate has been over at Mullagmore or the comp recently. Crazy stuff!

Cycling (when my new bike arrives)
Sailing
Motorcycling (2 days trackday in August and a few off-road adventures, maybe a rally and maybe the National Rally)
Occasional evenings in the fridge
sorting out the garden as my boy's getting old enough to appreciate the area to play in.

Working up as much money as possible for when I next go skiing (need catskiing funds ).
Probably just gonna get in a bit of cycling and tennis otherwise though, some skydiving would be nice but think I'm gonna save money instead.

Working mostly so I can afford to have a ski holiday and some new boots next season, and motorcycling.

Some of my mates were in the Mully comp. one got nominated for an XXL award, crazy place indeed. Haven't surfed it (have no intention of doing so) but have surfed Aileens a few times if you know that one (might break off this next swell although tides and swell direction don't look the best for it).

been sailing today. First time in ages. Actually, more motoring than sailing as winds were mainly v light, but lovely to be out on the water. Sat with a lovely picnic, glass of excellent French Sauvignon at lunchtime, watching an oystercatcher pottering on the diminishing mud bank. I'd forgotten how therapeutic it was! Purpose of day was for me to practice some manoevring under power on a bigger boat, as I'm very rusty having only been in charge of our tiny light boat with outboard for the last few years. Two lots of berthing and unberthing and locking out and in without any dramas and without losing 2 year old overboard (last task being much more of a challenge), so now feeling more confident. Off to the Isle of Wight for 8 days on Friday - not missing the snow one bit.

Most spare time is spent taking my children to their numerous activities. Have been swimming and did a 50 mile cycle ride at the weekend. I enjoy walking when its not as hot as this.
Pam W - We are off to the Isle of Wight for a few days soon as well.

pam w, cheers! Screwed up a little with the transition between the first two songs, but got bored of trying to work out how to trim them down.

I'll be trying to improve my flying skills - if I can achieve even a fraction of this I'll be pleased...

Climbing and hill walking mostly. Am going to walk Laugavegur in under 24 hours, it's about 55km so not that OTT. A bit of Glacier skiing in the next month depending on how it's looking crevasse wise.

Mostly mountainbiking. This last weekend was epic; just hope the weather holds up a bit better than the last two years.

Sailing. I have a Dart 15 Catamaran which I sail on a little reservoir near here, but looking forward to taking it for a week down to Abersoch. Otherwise a bit of cycling, caving/mine exploration, walking and helping out at some of the local ski clubs with their summer maintenance.
My wife also recently bought an inflatable Kayak which we can fit the dog into so perhaps a bit of paddling in the Lakes too

Until last week I would have been sailing my F16 catamaran this summer; but I've just sold it as I was not really using it!
So; I'll be mainly skiing inside and doing a bit of work; and if I get the time might build a hot-box for my skis!

Rock climbing and mountain biking mainly, bit of kajaking if I get round to it. There's never enough time to play all the games I want, well not and hold down a job. But then without the job you can't afford to play the games.

I just got back from an evening motorbiking around North Wales. Left my mate on his R1 well behind on the bends... I love burning off sports bikes
Other than that... clay shooting, horse riding, mountain biking, rabbit stalking, rock climbing and camping. Gonna get back into my running too. Maybe some hiking too if I get the time.

Well I do a fair bit of biking, some off road, but there aren't many hills around here. Tried downhill in the Alps last summer and it frightened the life out of me. Got a better bike on order so I'm intending to try a few forest trails out this summer.

Having the right kit definitely helps, same for any sport really. Oh, and get the right body armour as well
