Winter isn't a whole lot of fun all of the time for the quads - although my neighbor and I have gone riding in 5 degree (minus 20 windchill) weather with no ill effects. I'm waiting for a little non-frozen & dry weather so my neighbor and I can work on our ATV track in the back yard (He has a bobcat and I've got 11.25 acres of clear land - other than the house and our 1/2 acre pond).We've got a couple of jumps and some lightly banked turns so far.

For other hobbies:
I'm also into camping (30' Prowler TT)

R/C - I've got a brushless R/C Truck (Runs in the 60-65mph range - when I can keep the front down) that I take in the basement with the kids. I also run 2 Trucks that run on 30% Nitromethane (1 is 2wd & runs in the 50's & 1 is 4wd and runs in the 40's - both have 2 speed transmissions and disc brakes).

Street bikes (2000 Ninja ZX-11 - comfortable and fast)

Shooting a little

My 6yo son loves to play playstation 2 and 3, so we do that quite a bit when the weather doesn't cooperate. He gives the old man a run for his money from time to time.

This year, I'll have tons of yard work to do (Planting trees, cutting brush, seeding, etc.) as we built a house last fall and have not a single tree on all 11.25 acres. I also need to build a back deck and landscape everything.

Those little bastards are crazy... I'm not much of a hunter but I had some friends who came up to the house to try and hunt them with a bow. Three weekends of sitting in the brush at 5:00am and they wanted to bring shotguns. Super frustrated. I was laughing because all the damn turkey's would hide by the house while these knuckle heads were hiding on the other side of the property.LOL They out smarted three college grads with those kernal sized brains.

We like camping whenever we get the chance. My son is really into the gaming thing. I like to tinker with my guns ( I think I'm going to take up reloading ) and my wife , well she has freinds.
